On 17 June, a lively gathering of the Active Citizens Fund programme implementers and NGO Academy alumni took place. Stories were told from days in the life and work of the NGOs, the range of values and challenges of the sector were discussed, and they played, played, and were together. The people of the sector listened to each other with curiosity and receptivity, enjoyed the fellowship and wished to repeat this way of mobilisation.

The lively meetings of people “rowing in the same boat” are irreplaceable. Organisations in the NGO sector are lively, meaningful, curious and eager to share. We are delighted with the new tradition of hosting a gathering of the participants of the NGO Academy and the Active Citizens Fund, which we administer, at the beginning of summer. Until next time!
