Deadline: 29-Apr-22
Are you aged 0 to 30 or do you represent an organisation that works with children or young people? Does your organisation have documented experience of working with children and young people? Are you planning a collaboration that involves partners from other Nordic countries? If yes then, Apply for Norden 0–30 grant Programme.
Funding Information
- The largest amount you can apply for is EUR 50,000.
- For projects consisting of at least three (3) Nordic countries you can apply for €0–50 000.
- For projects consisting of two (2) Nordic countries you can apply for €0–10 000.
- In addition to the sum applied for, at least 15% of the funding must come from another source and may consist of in-kind financing.
- The total amount applied for from Norden 0–30 and other similar Nordic institutions may not exceed 85% of your total project costs. Other Nordic organisations include the Nordic Culture Fund and NordPlus.
- “In-kind financing” means the provision of goods or services instead of money, which counts towards project financing. For instance, voluntary work can be included in the budget. The calculations should be specified in the application budget, and the total must be considered reasonable for the completion of the project.
Eligible Projects
- Projects that can be funded should cover culture, social issues, and/or politics.
You can apply for support for projects or networks that consist of cultural, political or social activities where children and young people are actively engaged in the process and are able to have a say in the planning, implementation and evaluation of the project. Project partners should always encourage democratic participation and ensure that the children and young people involved in the project gain greater influence on the project.
For example, a project may entail:
- Networks: Either individual or a series of networking activities, such as meetings, conferences, workshops, camps, courses, or other activities designed to further develop and strengthen partnerships, provide opportunities for exchanging experiences, and to share resources for promotion efforts.
- Production: This can include processes, campaign or information material, methodology material, reports, digital storytelling, or works of art designed to make children and young people more aware of their right to participate and influence.
Target Audience
- The target group of the programme is children and young people up to the age of 30.
Eligibility Criteria
- organisations, groups, municipalities, institutions, associations and networks.
- Norden 0-30 supports projects with partners from two (2) or three (3) Nordic countries.
- In projects consisting of partners from two (2) Nordic countries one of them must be Greenland, Iceland, Faroe Islands or Åland Islands.
- At least three (3) Nordic countries must participate in projects that consist of three or more countries. In this case, Denmark, Finland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and the Åland Islands count as Nordic countries.
- The project applicant must reside in one of the Nordic countries stated above.
- The applicant does not have to be young, but must represent a partner that either consists of, or has experience of, involving children and young people.
- It is also considered particularly important if the project involves co-operation with parties from Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Åland, or the North Calotte.
