The event will be opened by the Head of Co-operation in the European Union Delegation in North Macedonia, Steffen Hudolin, and the Deputy PM for European Affairs, Bojan Marichikj, followed by a presentation of the Civil Resilience Mechanism (CRM), the European House said. EU Civil Resilience Mechanism (CRM), an in-kind support for civil society initiatives, was launched under the European Union funded project “Technical Assistance for improving the enabling environment for Civil Society Organisations in the Republic of North Macedonia”. The indicative amount of available funds under this call for proposals is 900,000 EUR. The main objective of this Programme is contributing towards enhanced space and capacities of civil society for efficiently addressing the key reform priorities in their communities needed for further democratisation of the society. In this respect, the CRM mechanism shall serve to enable grass-root civil society organisations to undertake efficient and effective actions to promptly respond to real needs in their communities and strengthen the citizens’ resilience during frequent social changes.
