External monitoring of the Active Citizen Fund programmes in Poland |
Support for civil society is a key priority for the EEA and Norwegian Financial Mechanisms (FMs) 2014- 2021. Civil society plays an important role in strengthening democratic governance, defending human rights, and engaging citizens in decision-making at local, national and regional levels. Civil society actors include non-governmental organisations (NGOs), social enterprises, community organisations, grass-roots initiatives, informal groups, and civic activists. A wide range of stakeholders, such as the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA), have voiced concern regarding challenges to fundamental rights and democratic principles in the beneficiary countries and a ‘shrinking space’ for civil society to work on these issues. |

Scenario-based strategy for FRA |
The Agency is in the process of developing a strategic framework whose underpinning premise is that sound, evidence-based decisions can be made only through an understanding of complex systems. It will be important to design a strategy that can cope with uncertainty and envision pathways and actions that can promote and protect fundamental rights in the future, in an era when many fields are developing rapidly and experiencing radical changes, and since fundamental rights challenges and emergencies require responsive approaches and responses tailored to context-specific changes. |

Ex-ante, interim and ex-post evaluations of FRA projects – Request for Services No. 2 - Call for Specific Tenders |
The European Union Fundamental Rights Information System (EFRIS) has been developed by FRA in cooperation with the United Nations and the Council of Europe and brings together information from around 60 different sources (e.g. ECHR, national courts, UN Treaty Bodies) on fundamental rights issues that are relevant to the various international human rights treaties that EU Member States are subject to. The purpose of this project is to help to update the system and to promote awareness of its merits amongst actual and potential users. The evaluation will need to assess how successfully the EFRIS has been updated and the extent to which its functionalities, usability and user friendliness have been improved. Given that an important aim of the project is to raise awareness of the system’s merits, the evaluation will also seek to obtain feedback from the key stakeholders including the United Nations and the Council of Europe on the extent to which the user base is being expanded and the extent to which feedback from users is positive. A key aim will be to help identify possible future priorities for EFRIS’s development. |

Assessment of the Consortium’s rapid response project, Strengthening Religious And Faith-Based Actors’ Engagement With Transitional Justice |
Religious and faith-based actors have played wide-ranging roles during periods of conflict or authoritarian rule, from peacemakers to tacit support of discriminatory or oppressive policies, to direct or indirect instigators of violence. In some contexts, faith-based actors have been able to build critical grassroots support for peace and reconciliation, but individual religious leaders have also been held accountable for committing atrocities. |
