COALITION OF PARTNERS

Organizations that initiate the citizens’ assembly and help disseminate its outcomes.

The citizens’ panel’s partners are the Estonian Cooperation Assembly, which manages the civic initiative platform, and the Estonian Network of Non-Governmental Organizations, which is the voice of civil society organizations acting in the public interest. The Opinion Festival supports the promotion of a culture of discussion, and the Estonian National Youth Council brings the voice of young people to the citizens’ panel. The Open Estonia Fund contributes the experience of previous citizens’ panels to the coalition. Kodukant and the Estonian LEADER Association bring the perspective of communities and regional organizations, while the Estonian Human Rights Centre provides a human rights perspective.
