The priorities of CSF and Media programme document 2016-17 are largely inspired by two sets of Guidelines prepared in coordination with EU Delegations in 2014: DG Enlargement Guidelines for EU support to civil society in enlargement countries, 2014-20 and DG Enlargement Guidelines for EU support to media freedom and media integrity in enlargement countries, 2014-20.
To achieve the priorities formulated in the strategic documents, in the period 2016-17 the Commission continued its efforts to consolidate regional networks and associations of CSOs and to increase their accountability. By promoting long-term partnership with CSOs cross-border thematic platforms the Commission intended to empower local civil society and to demonstrate that CSOs are reliable partners to inform local policies and to be engaged in positive dialectic with public authorities.
The global objective of the present assignment is to ensure adequate conditions to assess the call for proposals by providing the necessary technical assistance to the European Commission in the evaluation process.
