How can civil society organisations drive the digital transformation and economic development in the Eastern Partnership region? 

This EaP CSF policy paper highlights how civil society organisations contribute to advancing digital transformation by fostering inclusive governance, advocating for transparency, and supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in leveraging digital tools.   

The paper assesses the policies and frameworks that facilitate the active participation of civil society in economic and digital transformation, highlighting both the opportunities and barriers they encounter.  

Through an analysis of success stories from various EaP countries, it identifies best practices that have led to tangible improvements in digital governance and economic resilience. The paper also provides strategic recommendations for CSOs, national authorities, and the donor community, emphasising the need for structured collaboration, capacity-building initiatives, and policy adjustments to foster sustainable digital and economic transformation in the EaP region. 

We invite you to read the policy paper and joined us for the launch event on Wednesday 21 May.
