Partners Serbia supported the organization of the “Responding to New Realities: Shared Experiences of Civil Society Navigating Shifting Civic Spaces” conference on 3-7 March 2020. The Conference enabled in-depth reflection, discussion, and exchange of experiences and ideas regarding challenges and obstacles to civil society work from around the world. Moreover, the conference provided a dedicated space from participants from Eastern Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, and North America to engage with each other and identify and strategize around promising and innovative strategies to overcome those challenges.

 

The event is also organized as a kick-off meeting for a cohort of CSOs from Serbia, Senegal, Kenya, Nigeria and Georgia that will be further supported through the INSPIRES project to increase their organizational resiliency, in line with the Resiliency+ approach developed by PartnersGlobal.
