The project is supported by the European Union.This event was  a pilot aiming at bringing social initiatives back to the public sphere. itwas a marketplace – but instead of buying and selling it allowed exchanges of ideas and innovative practices. 12 micro-projects developed as part of the “Educational Innovation Incubator” was presented creatively, each in their own presentation space. During the event, a "Playback" theater group has improvised the stories of each project on one stage, and on another a professional journalist has  interviewed project leaders about their project's innovative concept and its contribution to social change.

The fair is a product of the three-year long program – a continuous partnership supported by the European Union between four organizations, suggesting a new space for CSO collaboration while focusing on creating alternative methods of learning. The learning process targeted practitioners and civil society activists interested in becoming social change agents.
