Hungary Project - Open Society
Activities:
Others The Open Society Foundations have been actively supporting Hungarian civil society for the last 30 years. The Hungary Project, part of the Rights and Liberties team of the Open Society Initiative for Europe, is an indirect successor to the national foundation that was transformed into the Hungary Project and operated out of the Budapest office a decade ago. Five years ago, the project staff also directed the emergency assistance that George Soros awarded to the region in the wake of the economic crisis. As such, the Hungary Project has historically been a backbone to support watchdogs and civil society organizations. The overall goal of the Hungary Project is to build broader and deeper constituencies for open society in Hungary. The project doesn’t only work with traditional Open Society partners but tries to widen the constituencies for open society values and reach out to new target groups. Purpose and Priorities: In order to achieve its goals, the Hungary Project has set three specific objectives for 2015, aiming at different target groups: 1. NGO Legitimation and Base-Strengthening: The Hungary Project aims to strengthen the legitimation of key actors of the Hungarian civil society, by assisting them with their efforts to enhance their constituencies and thereby increase their support from local sources with a mid-term aim of reaching self-sustainability. Grantees are selected by invitation (solicited proposals).
