Civic space assessment
Report of the Current State of the Civic Space
A structured report surface for tracking how legal protections, administrative practice, public participation, media access, digital rights, and access to information shape the space for citizens and civil society to act.
The assessment brings together civic-space issues that affect how people organise, speak, gather, access public information, and engage institutions. It is intended to help citizens, civil society, media, public bodies, and partners see where protections are working and where implementation gaps still limit meaningful participation.
The report pays attention to legal gaps and reported incidences of infringement, including barriers linked to public assemblies, digital expression, media access, association, and institutional responsiveness. By grouping these issues in one place, the page supports clearer follow-up, advocacy, and evidence-based dialogue.
Future updates can connect this summary to survey findings, incident records, legal analysis, and downloadable evidence so changes in the civic space can be tracked over time.
