Deadline: 8-Apr-22
The European Programme for Integration and Migration is inviting eligible civil society organisations to submit a one-page concept note for ‘Building Inclusive European Societies: Decent Work and Adequate Housing for All’ for a minimum duration of 12 months.
Through this Call for Proposals, European Programme for Integration and Migration (EPIM) will support civil society initiatives aimed to ensure decent work and adequate housing for all in the European Union, with a specific focus on people who have migrated to/within the EU regardless of their ethnic origin, socio-economic status, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, (dis)ability, and migration status.
In this regard, EPIM wishes to support initiatives aimed to create or enhance opportunities and conditions for decent work and adequate housing for people who have migrated to or within the European Union, by focusing on multi-stakeholder coordination, collaboration and/or dialogue between concerned parties. Grants awarded under this call for proposals can support the testing, implementation and/or replication of these coordination efforts. These efforts can be action-driven or purposefully aim to build structural and sustainable trust relationships between the actors involved. EPIM particularly encourages initiatives that take place across sectors (e.g., migration and agri-food, care, housing, platform work, transportation etc.), between non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and other actors (e.g., local authorities, corporate sector, trade unions etc.), across borders and involve people who are directly concerned by the targeted issues.
