The role of Russian civil society in foreign policy decision making. A comparative analysis with Republic of Moldova and Ukraine (November 2014 – October 2015)

ESGA’s first project “The role of Russian civil society in foreign policy decision making. A comparative analysis with Republic of Moldova and Ukraine (November 2014 – October 2015)” was implemented with the financial support of the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation, a project of German Marshall Fund. In 2017 we have continued our effort to study the Former Soviet Space and to present the realities and challenges faced by state actors in another project titled “Dialogue with Russia for a new generation of experts” (also implemented with the support of the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation). The debates that we have organized were attended by more than 100 Romanian experts in Bucharest; other European experts have had the opportunity to attend the event via online. A special attention was paid to the young generation of Romanian experts from different Romanian Universities within ESGA Young Leaders Program.
