New Law on Non-Profits in Moldova and What That Means for CSOs

In this episode of the Cu DREPTuL podcast, we talked about civil society organizations (CSOs) in the Republic of Moldova and challenges they are facing, aditionlly exacerbated by the pandemic and the political crisis. The adoption of the law on non-profit organizations in June 2020 is probably the most important change for civil society in the past year. Why a new law was necessary and what improvements it brings are just some of the topics discussed with this episode’s guest, the lawyer Aliona Țurcan.

As part of the National Campaign for Healthy Justice, the Access to Justice Project in Moldova supports Cu DREPTuL, a podcast on access to justice and human rights, which aims to be not only an informative but also an educational tool, useful to all interested in these topics in the Moldovan context.
