FRA and the EEA and Norway Grants have stepped up their cooperation, including on civic space and Roma inclusion. For civic space, the Grants are funding a 5-year programme implemented by FRA, which comprises three pillars: an online civic space information hub, providing advice to Member States on civic space protection which includes national civic space dialogues, a community of practice and capacity building.

On 27 and 28 January in Brussels, FRA and the Grants will discuss cooperation between the Grants’ 15 national fund operators and the programmes that the Grants are funding for their international partners – FRA, the Council of Europe, and the OECD. 

Beyond civic space, other topics covered are Roma inclusion (also covered by FRA), hate speech, and violence against women.
