CCP Synergy promotes tandem cooperations between civil society organisations from Germany and one of the 50 CCP partner countries which would like to carry out a joint initiative and network sustainably. Brief stays by employees from the cooperating organisations are promoted as are purely online collaborations as well as hybrid forms of collaboration. The purpose of such a collaboration could be, for example, the planning and implementation of joint events, fact-finding missions, research or artistic undertakings as well as the preparation of different kinds of publications. Thus, this programme encourages an exchange between civil society actors across national borders.
One of the organisations must be located in Germany and the other in one of the partner countries: Afghanistan, Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belarus, Bhutan, Bolivia, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Egypt, Georgia, Germany, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Marocco, Mauritania, Mexico, Mongolia, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Palestine Territories, Philippines, Republic of Moldova, Qatar, Russia, Saudi-Arabia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Tunesia, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Yemen.
If possible, both organisations should work in a similar field – thematically or regionally – from one of the following areas:
- Policy and society
- Media and culture
- Human rights and peace
- Sustainable development
- Democratic resilience
- Culture of remembrance
Funded collaborations need to be finalised by 15 November 2026.
CCP Synergy supports both cooperating organisations with a total of 4,500 EUR in total. Funding is available for the following purposes: travel expenses, accommodation, meals, health insurance, expenditure allowance as needed, and other costs related to the collaboration such as visas, etc.
