In the "From the Alps to the Carpathians" project, we are preparing a collection of good practices of Hungarian, Romanian, Polish, Ukrainian and Slovak NGOs. We are currently working on the call for applications for the Carpathian Social  Innovation Award and the technical preparation of the 2025 "Summer Camp" is underway.

Cross-border cooperation and donations have never been more important than now. From 9-11 October 2024, the Carpathian Foundation hosted the annual  steering committee meeting of Transnational Giving Europe (TGE) in Budapest.

We are pleased to announce the launch of , the Carpathian Civil Society Platform website karpatnet.com, which aims to facilitate more effective cooperation and partnering between civil society organisations in the Carpathian region.

We are excited to announce- in the From Alps to  the Carpathians project- a significant step forward in our mission to strengthen civil society across the Carpathian region: the development of a Virtual HUB, dedicated to supporting NGOs and civil society organizations.
