Peer to peer couching meetings will create space for group meetings of NGO leaders devoted to actual topics (cross-sectoral cooperation, involvement of young people, hate speech and human rights agenda). Cross-sectoral lunch seminars will create a discussion platform on similar topics for participants from NGOs, local self-governments, businesses and public sector. Portal of volunteer cooperation will create platform for connecting the offer with the demand – volunteers with NGOs.
