On May 14, CIVICUS will hold the 3rd annual Global Day of Citizen Action when individuals and organizations come together to host events to promote citizen engagement. The events will create a space for everyday people to share their thoughts on what ‘civic space’ means to them and raise awareness on everyone’s right to freedom of expression, association, and assembly.  In 2015,  116 events were held in 56 countries and 30,000 individuals participated.

To get involved, take a look at the closest event near you or create and register your own. The GDCA team can help you with materials and promote your event on their website.
