The EU System for an Enabling Environment for Civil Society (EU SEE) brings together civil society organizations from 86 countries in Africa, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific, the Americas and the Caribbean to monitor the enabling environment and contribute to early warning and action. The program is implemented by Hivos (lead), CIVICUS, Democracy Reporting International, European Partnership for Democracy, Forus, and Transparency International.
The partnership implements and maintains an Early Warning and Monitoring Mechanism to document changes and shed light on critical trends in the enabling environment for civil society. EU SEE equips civil society, governments, and stakeholders with actionable insights to address challenges and leverage opportunities effectively. It focuses on addressing deterioration in the enabling environment and supporting opportunities for improving the enabling environment for civil society. The public facing online platform will provide timely data
on events that may entail shifts in the enabling environment for civil society in all 86 countries. Through its involvement, DRI ensures that the project benefits from cutting-edge methodologies and insights into emerging digital challenges facing civil society.
