The European Commission has launched a call for proposals to support refugee integration projects under the Creative Europe programme.
The general objective of this call is to support cultural, audio-visual and cross-sectorial projects aiming at facilitating the integration of refugees in the European environment, enhancing mutual cultural understanding and fostering intercultural and interreligious dialogue as well as tolerance and respect for other cultures.
The aim is to support transnational cultural and audio-visual projects that could e.g. help refugees to socialise and express themselves without necessarily speaking the host countries language; be learning platforms fostering mutual respect and understanding of diversity and democratic values; help EU-citizens to discover and learn from the culture of refugees (through this also re-discovering their own); stimulate stronger cooperation with other organisations in order to develop a more comprehensive, rapid and effective long-term response to this global challenge.
Grants will be within the range of EUR 100,000 to 200,000 (max. rate of co-financing 80%). The deadline for applications is 28 April 2016. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Florian at florian.tuder@eurodiaconia.org.
