We launched the second call for applications of Active Citizens Fund!

22 October 2019

On 22 October 2019, the Ekopolis Foundation, the Carpathian Foundation and the Open Society Foundation opened another, in turn, the second round of calls for applications in the Active Citizens Fund – Slovakia grant program.

Through open calls, we will support dozens of projects across Slovakia in the areas of Strengthened civil society advocacy and watchdog role, Increasing support for human rights and civic education, Vulnerable groups empowered and Enhanced capacity and sustainability of civil society. The calls are open until 22 January 2020.

ACF’s financial resources are intended to actively involve citizens in decision-making and public policy-making, improve governance, strengthen human rights protection, improve civic education and strengthen the position of vulnerable groups in society. The program also has a particular interest in promoting bilateral contacts between partners from donor countries and Slovak organizations.

You can find the documents and information you need to process requests in the “Calls” section of this website. Calls will be submitted electronically via the online E-grant form. If you have any questions, you can contact the program or financial managers on the topic. In the coming weeks, we will offer information seminars in Bratislava, Košice and Zvolen for those interested in receiving financial support from the ACF program.
