What it funds
Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.
CSO is seeking proposals for projects that will inform key decision-makers' efforts to address threats to political stability and Euro-Atlantic integration in the Western Balkans. Proposals should support projects designed to create new analytic platforms and predictive tools that address stability threats from a regional perspective. Applicants may submit proposals that respond to challenges in one of two thematic areas: outside election interference or destabilizing economic Chinese influence in the Western Balkans.
