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.

Artists, researchers and technology activists are invited with the audience to formulate constructive responses to the questions and dilemmas posed by the ‘capture all’ society.
I recently got the job of scanning a batch of football programmes, magazines and comics for sale on www.ebay.co.uk under the seller name of the_genies_cave. I thought that they might have a wider interest. Further, I discovered a Flickr group dedicated to them!

Philippines Pilot School Programme Promotes Nuclear Science and Technology Education
The initiative is already helping the new generation make more informed decisions about nuclear science and its use, including the possible re-launch of the Philippines' nuclear programme, halted in the late 1980s.
"I have grown up in a family that was firmly against nuclear power, but now I see that that view is based on misconceptions and lack of information," said Sofia Isabel Baja, a Grade 12 student at the Quezon City Science High School, which also participated in the pilot project. "Without these classes it would not have occurred to me to question what I heard from my parents in this area."
