Voices of Civil Society Resilience Podcast - The 2026 Foreign Contribution Regulation Act Bill and Civil Society’s role in Contemporary India

In this episode, we're joined by Subhashini Prabhakar from the Voluntary Action Network India, or VANI, to discuss the amendments to India's Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, which will have far reaching implications for civil society actors in India, impacting how those actors are governed, and how they are funded.

We discuss what the changes mean for civil society, including large and small actors in India, and how local and international organisations and stakeholders can respond.
