Excerpt: 

The Civic Education Project (CEP), an international non-profit organization, has supported grassroots efforts to reform higher education in Central and Eastern Europe and Eurasia since 1991. In 2004 CEP completed its work in Europe and Eurasia and is now taking its highly successful programs to other world regions.

Centered on the belief that democracy requires critically minded and informed individuals, CEP’s network of scholars touches hundreds of students, faculty, and broader communities in the areas in which they teach.

CEP’s diversity and flexibility allow it to be a fluid organization, which responds quickly to the needs and trends of higher education in the former communist region. This website reflects those attributes and, like CEP, should be used as a tool and resource for those participating or interested in higher education.

Annotation:
