    Protect themselves from digital threats.

    Advocate for human rights, gender equality, and inclusive democracy.

    Mobilize communities through collective action.

    Amplify the voices of women, youth, and marginalized groups.

    Who Can Use the Hub?

    The Civic Hub is open to all member organizations of the Trinco Civic Forum and participants from our workshops. It is particularly designed to support grassroots CSOs, youth leaders, women advocates, and community groups who are driving democratic participation in Trincomalee.

    Together for a Stronger Civic Space

    Through this hub, we aim to build resilient, connected, and empowered communities that can reclaim and expand civic space, even in the face of digital and political challenges.
