Shaping the Next Phase: MTM & FTS Partner Workshop

On March 31st and April 1st, 2026, representatives from Metamorphosis Foundation and TechSoup came together for an intensive workshop for planning and reflection on the activities under the Regional Support Mechanism EECA.

The discussions began with an overview of the project timeline, needs assessment, and results from the call for grant proposals, offering a shared understanding of progress and key achievements so far. Building on this, partners explored future directions, focusing on strengthening networks, exchange opportunities, and capacity-building efforts.

The workshop also served as a platform for deeper collaboration, encouraging open dialogue and knowledge exchange. Special attention was given to advocacy efforts, highlighting the importance of connecting research, storytelling, and policy engagement.

Looking ahead, the workshop laid a strong foundation for the next phase of implementation, with a clear focus on amplifying impact and ensuring sustainability. The insights and energy generated during these sessions will continue to guide joint efforts, reinforcing a shared commitment to more resilient, inclusive, and effective work in the digital democracy field.

The project Regional Support Mechanism EECA is part of CIVICUS’ global Digital Democracy Initiative (DDI) that aims to build a sustainable and inclusive ecosystem for digital democracy in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, especially in conditions of narrowing civic space, disinformation, and increased digital risks.
