Advancing Economic and Digital Transformation in the Eastern Partnership Region
This event will mark the launch of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum (EaP CSF) Working Group 2 latest policy paper, which explores the evolving role of civil society organisations (CSOs) in driving economic development and digital transformation in the Eastern Partnership (EaP) region, Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova, Azerbaijan, and Belarus.
The event aims to create a space for dialogue between policy experts, civil society representatives, and institutional stakeholders to reflect on the findings of the paper and to discuss practical strategies for enhancing CSO engagement in shaping economic and digital policy across the region.
The policy paper highlights the dual role CSOs play in fostering inclusive governance and transparency, while also empowering SMEs and communities to leverage digital tools. The document presents both challenges and opportunities for CSO engagement and identifies best practices that can be scaled across the region. The analysis is structured across two main thematic pillars, economic development and digital transformation, each accompanied by a set of forward-looking policy recommendations.

For one week in May, come together to share ideas, discuss solutions, and commit to new levels of citizen participation in government.
