Across Europe, funding for Global Citizenship Education (GCE) is increasingly under pressure as public budgets shrink and government priorities shift away from international solidarity and civic engagement. Discussions within the ENfCIGS Funding Working Group and the Connect for Global Change partner group show a shared concern among civil society organizations in France, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Slovenia: The gradual withdrawal of state support is threatening the continuity of long-term educational programmes and public engagement with international solidarity.

The next meeting of the funding working group will be held on Thursday 16th of April 2026. When interested please contact: secretariat@europeannetworkforcigs.eu
