The P2P Programme, one of the three strands of the Civil Society Facility, provides a prime opportunity for civil society organisations (CSOs) in the candidate and potential candidate countries and territories to EU enlargement to expand their knowledge about the EU and the accession process through visits to the European Institutions, meetings with European civil society organisations and the opportunity to network internationally and regionally.
It has recently published a list of events for 2011 in the so-called "People 2 People" (P2P) Programme.
The CSF concentrates intervention in three areas:
- Support to local civic initiatives and capacity building enforcing the role of civil society at both the local and national level;
- “People 2 people” or visitor programmes to EU institutions and bodies for groups with influence on decision making and society to exchange know-how, experience and good practice between beneficiary and EU CSOs (and also individuals such as students, young politicians, teachers, journalists etc);
- Partnership activities carried out between CSOs in the beneficiary countries and the EU leading to a transfer of knowledge and networks.
The CSF consists of national components falling under individual country IPA allocations and a multi-beneficiary component, managed directly by the DG Enlargement. The national components are administered mainly through calls for proposals and will correspond to locally identified needs, while the latter, will provide multi-country and exchange opportunities.
