Civil society organisations across the Eastern Partnership countries have spearheaded democratic reforms. They have provided support to vulnerable communities, acted as watchdogs by monitoring elections and created a conducive environment for civic action. During challenging times, these organisations have come together to minimise or eliminate undue restrictions, safeguarding people's rights and freedoms.

For almost a decade, the CSO Meter project has monitored laws and practices affecting civil society’s work in the region, providing essential analysis and bringing CSOs together to advocate for democratic change. The project is supported by the European Union.

Through continuous monitoring and evidence-based advocacy, the organisations in the CSO Meter Hub were able to achieve substantial improvements to the civil society environment in their counntries.
