NGO Support Centre is an independent, non-governmental, non-profit organisation established in 1999 and dedicated to the development and strengthening of civil society in Cyprus. The organisation’s vision is a dynamic, active and reactive civil society in Cyprus that participates in and advocates for democracy, dialogue and civic engagement. The NGO Support Centre’s work focuses on empowering civil society organisations (CSOs) and promoting their sustainability by implementing capacity building activities and trainings for local CSOs, raising awareness about the role and impact of civil society, engaging in advocacy to protect civic space and promoting active citizenship and civic participation. In recent years, the NGO Support Centre has been establishing its role as intermediary between funding mechanisms and local civil society, applying its knowledge and experience to facilitate access to funding for local CSOs, through re-granting and fund operation programmes.
