Surviving Together Archives:

Welcome to ISAR's archive of Surviving Together: A Quarterly on Grassroots Cooperation in Eurasia

ISAR's quarterly Give & Take has superseded Surviving Together, but ISAR's original journal--published since 1983--remains a record of the grassroots work accomplished by activists in the former Soviet Union throughout the 1990s. Please explore this online archive of Surviving Together, a rich source of information about the NGO movements. Browse by Isue or by country.
For reprint permission or to receive back issues, please contact ISAR at . For more recent stories about NGOs in the FSU, please see our current publication, Give & Take.
