The Russian Justice Ministry has recognised the Polish Open Dialogue Foundation (Fundacja Otwarty Dialog) as an “undesirable organisation”.
The Open Dialogue Foundation was founded in Poland in 2009 by Ukrainian student and civic activist Lyudmyla Kozlovska. The organisation is engaged in the protection of human rights in post-Soviet regions and is guided by the values of democracy and the rule of law.
On 18 March, the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office declared three Canadian non-governmental organisations “undesirable” in Russia: the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs and the Russian Canadian Democratic Alliance.
