Sida welcomes applicants who spearhead efforts to protect and promote civic space worldwide; through work on policy and method development that contribute to an enabling environment and a strong independent civil society.
An enabling environment refers to the conditions in which civic space is respected, protected and promoted, allowing civil society actors to organise, operate, engage and contribute to development and democratic governance as independent actors in their own right.
Sida – the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency – is a government agency working to improve the living conditions of people living in poverty and under oppression in countries receiving official development assistance worldwide . Sida operates on behalf of the Swedish government and Parliament and the activities of the agency are funded through Swedish tax revenues.
