In its continued commitment to strengthen civil society in the Braničevo and Podunavlje districts, the organization has successfully launched the second cycle of the “We Change Together” initiative. This program seeks to foster citizen engagement in local decision-making processes and encourage socially responsible actions that enhance community well-being.
Recognizing a pressing need for grassroots activism, the initiative attracted over 40 applications, demonstrating a vibrant interest in community improvement. The shortlisted applicants benefited from several rounds of tailored mentoring, where experienced activists provided invaluable guidance on overcoming common challenges. This hands-on approach not only nurtured innovative ideas but also empowered activists to refine their proposals ahead of the final selection process.
The initiative culminates in a competitive selection where six outstanding projects will receive financial support, coupled with ongoing mentorship. By investing in these grassroots initiatives, the organization is not just providing funds but fostering a culture of collaboration and active participation among citizens.
Quotes from the team encapsulate this vision: “Strengthening civil society in these two districts is the backbone of our organization’s work, and we are working very hard to ensure that our citizens become active in their communities.” This steadfast commitment to supporting activism highlights the organization’s role as a catalyst for change.
As the project progresses, it aims to enhance individual initiatives while also reinforcing the community as a whole, ensuring that every voice can play a part in creating a brighter future.
