Call for Proposals on Freedom of Association and Assembly in Ukraine

Ukrainian non-governmental organizations can submit proposals for programs aimed at strengthening Ukraine’s compliance with its international commitment to protect the freedom of association. Applications will be accepted through January 7, 2013.

Applicants should submit proposals that build upon the efforts of their current freedom of association/assembly programming.
