We have signed an agreement with political parties on supporting civil society

We have signed an agreement with political parties on supporting civil society.

The Donors Forum and the National Federation of Non-Governmental Organizations (OFOP) have signed an agreement with the Civic Coalition, Third Way, and New Left that they will take concrete steps to improve the legal situation of foundations and associations.

These groups have committed to:

• introducing transparent rules for financing organizations from public funds and incentives for philanthropy.
• simplifying the legal regulations concerning foundations and associations, so that they can operate in a more friendly and secure environment.
• conduct genuine public consultations in which the voice of non-profit organizations will be heard and taken into account when drafting legislation and public policies
• use the Polish Donors Forum's Manifesto and Recommendations for Good Law for foundations and OFOP's proposals for simplifications for the third sector.

The signing of formal agreements on this matter by politicians is the result of consistent advocacy efforts by the Polish Donors Forum and OFOP.
