The support for NGOs will contribute to achieving the strategic objective of the project by providing some of the resources necessary for the original construction of the network's capacity. The aim of the project is the achievement of capacity for realistic risk formulation, based on both geopolitical considerations and specific local knowledge, and hence - the development of policies adequate for these risks.
The project does not aim for a set of specific actions on a specific issue or a social problem. Instead, it aims to create a set of skills in the NGO sector for comprehensive and publicly significant participation in the process of compliance with state decisions on national and supranational level through specific expertise and in-depth local knowledge. It also aims to create an ability for an active and confident participation in the formation of these decisions and policies. These precisely are the main objectives of the thematic area "Capacity Building of NGOs".
