Call for workshops at the Civil Society Forum 

We also invite innovative and engaging workshop proposals for the 9th edition of the Civil Society Forum! 

If you are passionate about these topics and want to share your experience, we invite CSOs and people living in Europe to this event to share your experience and learn from the participants from a vibrant and diverse backgrounds. 

Do you have a topic you would like to discuss with CSO partners for 2024-2029?  

This is your chance to lead a thematic workshop at the Civil Society Forum. As the new mandate of the European Commission and Parliament (2024-2029) approaches, you will have the opportunity to bring important issues to the attention of  policymakers, civil society and people living in Europe. By organising a workshop, you can contribute to strategic and meaningful conversations and influence policymakers on critical issues such as the European Green Deal (EGD), the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the Green and Just Transition for the 2024-2029 mandate. 

You can be part of this journey either by registering as a participant or by organising your workshop to share your expertise, insights and creativity with people from across Europe and beyond during the 2 days of the Civil Society Forum.  

What we are looking for from organisers and workshop proposals (for max.1.5h) that are: 

• Innovative and engaging: Be creative and foster interactive and participatory sessions. 

• Strategic and relevant: Focus on key topics/issues that are crucial for civil society’s role in EGD, SDGs and green and just transition. 

We encourage all interested individuals and civil society organisations to submit their workshop proposals by Monday, 16 September. Let’s come together to create a dynamic and impactful Civil Society Forum for our common goals for a greener and socially just Europe. 

We look forward to welcoming you at the Civil Society Forum! 

The full agenda will be shared with those registered participants and organisers closer to date of the event. Stay tuned!
