About DARE CYPRUS

DARE CYPRUS- Day One for Civil Society in Cyprus is a 16-month project that benefits from a grant under the Active Citizens Fund Cyprus programme, funded by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, through the EEA and Norway Grants 2014-2021. The project is aiming at two Outcomes, namely:

  • Increased Citizen Participation in Civic Activities and
  • Enhanced Capacity and Sustainability of Civil Society in Cyprus

The project targets Civil Society Organisations (CSO) and individuals in both the Greek Cypriot and the Turkish Cypriot communities. The project targets all CSOs, but it will focus on Civil Society Organisations in the fields of Youth, Gender Equality, Environment, and Health. During the project, the CSOs will have the opportunity to receive training and mentoring on topics such as:

  • Human Resource Management in Voluntary Projects and (European) Citizens’ Initiatives
  • Online Campaigns and Petitions
  • Validation of non-formal Learning with Open Badges
  • Stakeholder Dialogue

In the framework of the project, a research was carried out by Capital Youth Association, indicating the importance of EEA and Norway Grants in Liechtenstein and offering know-how and good practices regarding Civil Society Organisations and their action.
