February, 2026, precise date TBD!
At this time of unprecedented cuts to foreign aid globally, a bevy of regressive anti-rights laws, and significant changes in the philanthropic landscape, Dalan Fund published the first-ever comprehensive analysis of funding for intersectional organizing across the diverse regions of Central Eastern Europe, Caucasus, and Central and North Asia (CEECCNA).
Movements from CEECCNA have decades-long experience of living under and organizing against authoritarian rule, and key takeaways and lessons from the regional social justice movements distill major trends shaping global politics today.
For the upcoming EDGEy Wednesday in February 2026, the session will guide us through the key findings of the analysis from the Dalan Fund and hear the reflections from the regional movement organizers about the funding and organizing landscapes in the CEECCNA regions.
