Soliya was awarded $1.25 million for a project entitled Terana: Strengthening Leaders, Equipping Organizations, and Enabling Public Discourse.
MEPI’s competition for funding was designed in response to Secretary Clinton’s announcement of Civil Society 2.0, an initiative which helps grassroots organizations around the world use digital technology to tell their stories, build memberships and support bases, and connect to their community of peers around the world.
This new group of projects will advance MEPI’s goal of building pluralistic societies where diversity is reflected in social organizations, politics, business, media, and government, and where all citizens have equal standing, protected by guaranteed rights and by independent and effective courts of law.
