Mounting Pressure in Balkan Protests
Transparency and Accountability Initiative (TAI) is a collaborative of six funders working to expand the impact and scale of global transparency, accountability, and participation (TAP) initiatives. In recent years, a growing body of evidence demonstrates global shifts in legal and political contexts that constrain what civil society actors can say, where and how they operate, and whether and how they can access funding. Shrinking civic space is affecting the ability of civil society groups to operate freely and independently. This brief provides data on how civil society groups pursuing TAP outcomes are experiencing and responding to shrinking civic space. The research aims to help frame funder-grantee organization conversations around shrinking civic space, and to inform funder support that targets needs among their TAP grantee ecosystems.

What is Monitoring Matrix?
The Monitoring Matrix is a tool developed as a collective effort of CSO experts and practitioners from the BCSDN network of members and partners and the European Center for Not-for-Profit Law (ECNL). It presents the main principles and standards that are identified as crucial for the legal environment to be considered supportive and enabling for the operations of CSOs. As such, the aim of the Monitoring Matrix is to define an optimum situation desired for civil society to function and develop effectively and at the same time it sets a framework which can be followed and implemented by public authorities. The Monitoring Matrix research results are summarized into country reports and a regional report that provide a comprehensive overview of the policy and legal framework that governs the civil society in the Western Balkans and Turkey (WBT) region.
