CIVICUS Digital Action Lab Cohort 3

The CIVICUS Digital Action Lab Cohort 3 is an initiative to support civil society organisations in developing, testing, and scaling digital solutions that strengthen civic space, inclusive democracy, and citizen engagement. Selected participants receive technical support, peer learning opportunities, and funding to implement their proposed projects.

Participants receive hands-on support to strengthen their digital skills and develop practical strategies for advocacy, participation, and accountability. They join a peer learning space, gain new perspectives, and have funding to implement their digital initiatives. The programme also supports documentation of approaches and lessons learned for knowledge-sharing.

Applicants must be civil society organisations (formal or informal), networks, movements, or coalitions, based in OECD DAC ODA-eligible countries, with active work on democracy or civic space issues and the ability to manage grant funding and deliverables in English.

Submit an application or nomination form via the CIVICUS website; documents and organization information describing alignment with the goals of DAL may be required.
