The Macedonian Center for International Cooperation (MCIC) is a civil society organisation that promotes social change and innovative solutions to civic and social challenges. Instituted on 14 December 1993 in Skopje, the Republic of Macedonia, with support from Dutch Interchurch Aid (DIA) and the World Council of Churches (WCC), MCIC was developed in response to social issues arising from the balkanization of Yugoslavia. MCIC has since developed as an independent, civic, non-profit organisation ready to face social challenges and create models or alternatives for resolving related problems.

Since its establishment, MCIC has implemented more than 1,300 projects as part of 60 programs, amounting to over 45 million euros in the following sectors: water supply and sanitation, rural development, health and education, employment and civil society, democratization, trust, immediate aid and activity in the Balkans.

Following initial loan-based development, MCIC established the Macedonian Enterprise Development Foundation (MEDF), whose focus is the growth of small enterprises through provided access to financial and non-financial services.[1] MEDF has since supported over 3,500 entrepreneurs with loans as well as non-financial services. MCIC has further supported the development of rural communities by strengthening their capacity for internal problem resolution. As a result of this support, 250 villages in the Republic of Macedonia now have access to drinking water.

MCIC undertook the role of mediator during the conflicts in Kosovo (1999) and Macedonia (2001), mobilizing civil society in providing humanitarian response to the crisis. This period directed MCIC to post-conflict activities and confidence building as well as activities outside Macedonia. Regional cooperation peaked with the establishment of the Balkan Civil Society Development Network (BCSDN).
