In December 2012, GMF launched the MENA Partnership for Democracy & Development, based in Tunis, Tunisia. This groundbreaking public-private partnership will function as an international clearinghouse of service providers, donors, experts, and experienced practitioners that civil society organizations and government institutions can draw upon to meet their specific needs in the newly democratic environment of the transformed Arab world. Working across the full range of democratic reform, the MENA Partnership will focus particularly on women’s empowerment, democratic advocacy, and economic reforr.
The MENA Partnership will draw on the experience of GMF’s existing trusts, the award-winning Balkan Trust for Democracy (BTD) and the successful Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation (BST) to promote regional cooperation and good governance in MENA countries by providing support to local indigenous organizations in order to improve their capacity for addressing local and regional challenges. The MENA Partnership for Democracy and Development will launch its activities in early 2013.
