Strengthening Cohesion Participation: The IB Represents YES Forum at European Civil Society Week


In March 2025, the IB represented the YES Forum at the European Civil Society Week in Brussels, focusing on Strengthening Cohesion and Participation in Polarised Societies. Organised annually by the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), the event serves as a platform to foster civil society engagement, exchange best practices, and explore solutions to pressing societal challenges.

The discussions brought together representatives from civil society, the EESC, the European Parliament, and the European Commission. Key topics included funding for civil society organizations, the EU’s next Multiannual Financial Framework (2028–2034), and the development of a European strategy for civil society. Throughout the event, the crucial roles of civil society—as service providers and (political) advocates—were repeatedly highlighted, underlining their significance in shaping a more inclusive and participatory Europe.
