25 years of Transition: The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia
A fire-side chat with Sergei Guriev, Professor of Economics, Sciences Po (incoming EBRD Chief Economist)
Civil society, operating in the space between public and private sectors, has played an important role in socio-political and economic transition processes around the world, including the EBRD’s traditional countries of operations. In 25 years since the establishment of the EBRD, civil society’s contribution to transition has varied across the post-communist transition region. In some countries, the work of civil society organisations (CSOs) has contributed to more democratic political systems and more open market based economies as a ‘reputational actor’ performing a ‘watchdog’ function and as a generator of ‘social capital’ necessary to sustain the change process through the difficult early years. In other countries, the focus of CSOs has been on providing a variety of social services particularly to disadvantaged and vulnerable people negatively affected by the transition process. Many civil society actors have been operating in restrictive regulatory environments, and have relied heavily on international donor funding.
What has been civil society’s input into promoting good governance, sustainable development and economic inclusion in EBRD’s traditional region over the past few decades? What are the key lessons learned, from both its successes and failures that can be applied to other countries embarking on a transition process? What steps could be taken to increase the role of civil society in promoting positive changes in societies and economies?
The discussion looked back at the key achievements and setbacks of the civil society sector in contributing to transition since the Bank’s establishment. It also reflected upon the challenges ahead for civil society in building well-governed, sustainable and inclusive economies and societies.

Ashraf Ali Gazi is a farmer living in the district of Khulna in south-western Bangladesh, and the sole provider of his family. In 2009, Cyclone Aila struck the coastal regions of Bangladesh, leaving behind a trail of ruin and damage. The tidal surges of the cyclone flooded all his cropland, while the saline water stagnation laid waste to his rice fields. He was given a grant to cultivate hybrid sunflowers to sustain his income.

Once again our summer programme was oversubscribed with long waiting lists for some of the more popular trips and activities. A great bonus for us this year was our successful PAYP Open Access application secured in March, alongside our targeted South Liverpool Housing bid enabling us to reach far greater numbers.
To-date this year YouthPoint has :
• registered 116 young people from Speke/Garston (61 new registrations)
• delivered 271 hours of activities (45.16 hours average per week)
• accompanied 41 young people on a 3 night residential holiday in Blackpool
• secured £12,500 to spend on additional staff, activities, trips and residentials.
• delivered 150 volunteer hours through our peer mentoring scheme
Whilst our main aim was to make the summer as much fun as possible the Every Child Matters, five outomes for children continued to be key to our delivery.
Bullying is always high on our list of priorities during the summer as many of our young people are worried about going into their new schools in September. A series of informal discussion groups were held with staff where participants could talk about issues of concern including personal safety, relationships, bullying, drinking and substance misuse.
Residentials, day trips and a range of activities designed to overcome fears, stretch imagination, introduce new ideas and build on existing skills enabled the group to grow in confidence week by week. Activities included dance lessons, watersports, ice skating and arts & crafts sessions.
We provided regular access to a range of activities aimed at improving fitness levels, diet and lifestyle. The 'Sport for All' programme was well attended and this year we managed to limit time spent playing football to devote more time trying out new sports. With the help of Linda Mooney (South Liverpool Active City Co-ordinator) we enjoyed handball coaching and attended the city games. Four of them successfully represented the region in Manchester on August 21st.
Through our 'You are what you eat' programme, the group learned about how the food they eat affects their bodies. Armed with their knowledge of 'healthy eating' they were able to prepare food (including fruit smoothies) for the celebration at the village hall.

The National Adaption Programme of Action for climate change was launched in Juba today, as part of the governmentâs global obligation to taking action to lessen effects of climate change.
The Ministry of Environment in collaboration with the United Nations Environmental Program launched a 60-page document. The National Adaption Programme Action, known as NAPA lists priorities and spells out guiding principles for adaptation projects to address the urgent and immediate climate change concerns in South Sudan.
Parties to the climate change convention signed in Paris 2015 are required to come out with this document to detail specific actions they intend to take. The Ministry has listed 5 priorities in areas of concern including reforestation and agroforestry, sustainability of wetlands and promotion of climate-backed agriculture. Speaking at the launch, guest of honour Minister of Energy and Dams Stephen Dhieu Mathok said the government should create more awareness for the plan to succeed.
Environment Minister Josephine Naponi Cosmas said the threat of climate change is real.
The UN Humanitarian Coordinator in South Sudan Eugene Owusu said Climate Change accelerates poverty and is severely felt by the poor.
Meanwhile the Country Program Manager of UNEP Arshad Khan said South Sudan has one of the highest rates of deforestation in the world. He said forests are the main absorbents of source of carbon dioxide released as a green gas pollutant and therefore must be protected.
With the completion of the NAPA document, South Sudan is eligible to benefit from a 40 million dollar fund set aside to help developing countries deal with the effects of climate change.
