CALL: DAPHNE (PREVENTING VIOLENCE)
Action grants for transnational projects are available under the combined 2009/2010 call of the Daphne III programme to prevent and combat violence against children, young people and women and to protect victims and groups at risk. While public bodies at national level are not eligible for funding, those operating regionally/locally may apply.
Projects must address one of the following priorities:
-Street and peer violence - Identification of best practices, education initiatives and campaigns involving young people on this issues and related lifestyle factors (e.g. drug and alcohol abuse and weapon-carrying);
- Media violence - Targeted educational activities designed to increase understanding of the potentially negative impacts of new technologies;
- Corporal punishment of children - awareness-raising and educational materials;
- Intimate partner violence - Training and exchange of law enforcement agents and legal practitioners;
- Grassroots field work to involve and empower children, young people and/or women in particular programmes - possibly including training, counselling, support group mechanisms and innovative ideas for developing a protective environment.
Grants totaling EUR29 million are available and are to range between EUR75,000 and EUR300,000 for 12-month projects or double these amounts for 24-month projects. The intervention rate is up to 80% of overall eligible project cost. Projects should begin in the first half of 2011.
Deadline: 30 April
