Civil Society Europe is the coordination of civil society organisations at EU level
Through its membership, CSE reaches out to millions of people active in or supported by not-for-profits and civil society organisations across the EU. Civil Society Europe was created by several civil society organisations as a follow-up to the European Year of Citizens and was established as an international not-for-profit under Belgian law in 2016. Since then, Civil Society Europe has become the point of reference for EU institutions on transversal issues concerning civil dialogue and civic space.
Our mission is to contribute to EU recognition of the role of independent and plural CSOs in building and nurturing a democratic society based on fundamental rights
