Funding Opportunity for Civil Society Organisations to Countering Disinformation in Poland

The EEA Civil Society Fund supports civil society organisations working to strengthen democracy, human rights, public participation, and social inclusion across eligible European countries. Through targeted funding programmes, the Fund empowers non-profit organisations to address emerging societal challenges, promote civic engagement, and encourage collaboration among communities and institutions. One of its key priorities is improving public resilience against misinformation and disinformation by supporting organisations that promote media literacy, digital awareness, and democratic values. The Fund also invests in organisational capacity building, enabling civil society groups to deliver sustainable, community-focused initiatives that create long-term social impact.

The Countering Disinformation Grants Poland programme provides financial support to civil society organisations implementing projects that combat false and misleading information while promoting democratic participation and human rights. The initiative encourages innovative solutions that strengthen digital literacy, improve access to reliable information, and build public resilience against online manipulation and AI-generated misinformation. Approximately 30 grants will be awarded to projects that focus on awareness campaigns, education, research, fact-checking, and community engagement. In addition to project funding, organisations will benefit from dedicated capacity-building support to strengthen their long-term ability to address disinformation challenges across Poland.
