During the session, we will present the results of research conducted in 2020-2022 among the residents of 11 CEE countries (N=600 per country). We will show the scale of support for social goals, discuss the main motivators and barriers to it, and give recommendations on how to develop the philanthropic activities of societies in our region. We support conclusions with observations from consultations carried out in selected countries with key actors and decision-makers in the area of social engagement.
