European Network for CIGS

2022 spring coordination group meeting

On Monday the 16th of May the coordination group of the network met. During the meeting we welcomed our new member the Finish Development NGO network FINGO. We spoke about developments in Ukraine in relation to the actions of CIGS. A special leaflet was made for the members of the network to inform the public about establishing a CIGS in this special crisis situation. Furthermore the website was presented and discussed, and the representation of the network in the DEAR Multi-Stakeholdergroup. The minutes are published and available to all.

The capacity building working group focuses on training activities that are organised by the members to strengthen the capacities of CIGS.

The funding working group exchanges practices on processes and procedures for funding of CIGS and their development activities in the global South.

The research working group unveils valuable insights in the CIGS communities and their relevance for sustainable development and in mobilising the public to engage in international solidarity.

The coordination group undertakes action in European matters of relevance for CIGS or for the members of the network. This is the management and the organisations of the network as a whole.
