A total of 17 projects have been selected for funding in response to the Active Citizens Fund Cyprus programme’s Open Call (2021).

From the projects selected, nine projects address the Call Outcome 1 “Increased Citizen Participation in Civic Activities” while the other eight projects address the Call Outcome 2 “Vulnerable groups empowered”. All selected projects propose activities that satisfy the mandatory Call Outcome 3 “Enhanced capacity and sustainability of civil society (organisations and the sector)” ensuring that the programme will support the strengthening of the capacity of the civil society sector in Cyprus.

There are eight funded projects that include a bicommunal partnership, contributing to the programme’s priority to actively support bicommunal cooperation and projects that foster intercultural dialogue. Additionally, four projects will be implemented through a bilateral partnership, involving CSOs from two of the donor states, Norway and Liechtenstein.
