Mapping the Needs and Challenges of CSOs in Cyprus (2022)
In February 2022, the NGO Support Centre launched a survey for mapping the needs and challenges of CSOs in Cyprus, aiming at collecting representative data which would highlight the best ways to support the organisations and to maximise their social impact. The purpose of this report is to publish the results of the survey and the key findings of the focus group discussions and to provide a resource for stakeholders that can be used to inform their present and future actions aiming at supporting and strengthening civil society in Cyprus.
The European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights report constitutes background material for a comparative report for the project “Fundamental Rights Platform and cooperation with civil society”. The country research was prepared by FRA’s research network FRANET for the report ‘Protecting civic space in the EU’.

An Assessment of Civil Society in Cyprus. A Map for the Future – 2011
The Civil Society Index is a participatory action-research project assessing the state of civil society. It has now been implemented in its different phases in over 70 countries around the world. The CSI is initiated and implemented by, and for, civil society organisations (CSOs) at the country level, in partnership with CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation.
Due to the current division of the island, the CSI research was conducted separately in the Greek-Cypriot and Turkish-Cypriot communities. It was conducted jointly by the NGO Support Centre and the Management Centre of the Mediterranean, and was supported by UNDP – ACT.
