In each center, a professional consultant gives free-of-charge information and consultations to NGOs or civil initiatives throughout their life cycle, starting from facilitating networking with key institutions and activists and helping to set up an organization to giving up to date information in the field or advice on how to develop or renew an NGO. The National Foundation of Civil Society coordinates the work of county NGO consultants.
