Funders and Projects

Whilst Euclid Network (EN) is a membership organisation, we run specific projects to empower and strengthen civil society in specific regions in Europe were civil society is under-developed. We are also funded to run specific projects with our members.

All projects run by EN are with local partners, who are crucial to the implementation of the projects. The partners themselves are widely seen as experts in their respective fields.

Reuniting Europe

The 18-month civil society development project funded by the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office is increasing democratic demand by empowering civil society with a unique methodology: connecting leaders across borders to facilitate peer learning and cooperation, for the development of more innovative and cohesive societies in Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro. The project began in April 2008 and ended September 2009.
