Project funding

ForumCiv supports efforts worldwide to strengthen civil society's ability to act.

A strong and active civil society is a prerequisite for democratic movements to challenge unjust structures. ForumCiv's project funding is aimed for organisations working to change power structures, inequalities and poverty. We are supporting new ways of organising, mobilising and strengthening the links between those working for sustainable development globally.
