SUMMARY:Civil Society Week
DESCRIPTION:The European Civil Society Week is a major EU-level forum bringing together civil society organisations\, policymakers\, and grassroots actors to respond to growing social\, democratic\, and territorial challenges across Europe. For Local Action Groups\, the event is particularly relevant as it focuses on strengthening civic engagement\, social inclusion\, and trust in democratic institutions while addressing inequalities between regions and generations. Organised around the themes of opportunities\, security\, and resilience\, and aligned with key European Commission priorities\, the week will showcase debates and participatory sessions on how local communities can better involve citizens\, counter polarisation\, support vulnerable groups\, and contribute to a more cohesive and democratic Europe\, including in rural and peripheral areas. \nRegistrations are currently open – see link below. \nThe following sessions will be especially intersting for LAGs: \n\nWhat holds us together? The power of social cohesion – Monday the 2nd at 14:00\nWhen the system stops delivering: housing\, inequality and Europe’s social contract – Monday the 2nd at 16:15\nWorkshop: participate\, propose\, progress – social resilience\nCivil Society Strategy and Platform – what is next? – Wednesday the 4th at 11:00

SUMMARY:Readiness of Ukraine to implement the EU LEADER programme
DESCRIPTION:Ukraine’s recovery will not succeed without strong and empowered local communities. While the European Union has mobilised significant financial instruments for Ukraine’s reconstruction\, funding often fails to reach the local level where recovery actually happens. \nThe policy seminar will focus on bringing together Ukrainian local leaders\, EU policymakers\, Members of the European Parliament\, representatives of EU institutions\, and civil society organisations. The event will explore how EU recovery instruments could better support community-led approaches\, pilot the LEADER methodology in Ukraine\, and enable recovery funding to reach municipalities and local partnerships directly. \nConfirmed speakers:\n– Thibaut Guignard – President of LEADER France and member of the European Committee of the Regions\, Mayor of Plœuc-L’Hermitage\n– Aelig Le Gentil – Leader France\n– Serhii Zamidra – First Deputy Head at All-Ukrainian Association of Communities\n– Lukáš Veselý – Deputy Head of Unit – Ukraine’s Reconstruction & Accession (DG ENEST.D1)\n– Sviatoslav Surma\, Fond Rydnia Stryj\n– Michaela Macharik – President of Czech-Ukrainian Chamber of Industry & Commerce \n  \nRegister in the link in the “details” section \n
