Call for proposals: Fundamental Rights and Citizenship
Call for proposals - Fundamental Rights and Citizenship - Action grants 2013
Deadline for submission of proposals: 12 March 2014 (12:00 noon CET)
Under the Fundamental Rights and Citizenship Programme, the 2013 action grants call has been launched, with several priorities on the rights of the child. The deadline for submission of applications is 12:00 on 12 March 2014.
The rights of the child priorities are:
- Training for practitioners/professionals dealing with children in residential care or detention: on the rights of the child and on how to communicate with children in an age- and context-appropriate manner.
- Development and delivery of training modules on child-friendly justice for legal and other (e.g. social and health workers, police) professionals and practitioners who interact with children in the context of judicial proceedings (civil, criminal or administrative law). Modules should be developed in order to be made available and be easily adaptable for use in all EU Member States. Modules must be piloted and adapted where necessary as a result of piloting and as part of the project.
- Fostering participation of Roma children through identification and development of effective approaches to involve them in matters that concern them. The aim should be to empower Roma children and to build a basis for their meaningful participation at local, regional and national levels.
- Structural improvements to the provision of general information to children on their rights, namely by piloting good practice or the further rollout of good practice in the provision of general legal/rights-related advice for children, such as by way of legal advice clinics for children or mobile legal advice units, whose work is firmly grounded in the rights contained in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the UN Convention on the rights of the child.
