The closing conference of the Active Citizens Fund – Regional Programme will take place on 26 September 2024 from 10:00-16:15 at the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw.
We are holding the conference with the theme of ‘Open, democratic, green’, referring to the slogan of the Norwegian and EEA Funds, which contribute to the co-creation of a more inclusive, democratic and green Europe.
The event will start with a plenary session, and then we will invite you to workshops, discussion panels and presentations of the best practices presenting the results of projects funded under our Programme. There will also be an opportunity to take part in discussions with experts on current trends and opportunities for the development of NGOs.
This will be a unique opportunity to learn about inspiring, innovative solutions, as well as to talk and network with people representing organisations from all over Poland.
