“The role and place of civil society in the strategy of the future”
Minsk, 11-12 April 2011
Dear representatives of Belarus’ civil society organizations,
representatives of the political sector and the expert community of
Belarus, authorized persons of the diplomatic missions of the countries
of the European Union and Eastern Partnership!
We invite you to take part in the Conference “The role and place
of civil society in the strategy of the future” on the basis of the
National Platform of the Civil Society Forum of the Eastern Partnership. This conference is aimed at providing a public discussion of the actual
situation in the country in its entirety and in the public sector in
particular, as well as possible prospects of the further actions within
the scope of the National Platform of the Civil Society Forum for the
nearest period.
The Conference will include participation of Belarusan and foreign civil
society organizations, experts, and representatives of the diplomatic
missions of the countries of the European Union in the Republic of
Belarus.
In the situation after December, 19th, 2010, a new strategy of civil
society’s actions becomes a pressing question. It is obvious that any
positive changes in the country are impossible if the third sector is
not involved in the dialogue about the future and if the existing
public-political split in Belarus is not eliminated. However, civil
society’s separateness and weakness do not allow it today to enter equal
relations with the Belarusan state and to join the solution of
significant public problems.
The problem of civil society’s consolidation, despite its evidence,
cannot be solved without coordination of the strategies and approaches
various public forces have. Such approaches should be publicly presented
by those who possess them, and discussed with civil society
organizations. Only after their criticism and analysis, it is possible
to start forming and suggesting the uniform strategic platform of
actions for the near future.
