Over 7.6 million euros to boost international cooperation
The budget for cooperation projects and education for global justice have been increased by 3.19% compared to the previous year. The budget will be used for subsidies for NGOs and organisations in the sphere of global justice and international cooperation. The application period will be open until 6 March.
The call sets out ten project categories grouped into three programmes: cooperation for global justice, education for global justice and cooperation for global justice in specific cities. The maximum amount which organisations can apply for per project has been increased in nearly all categories. Consideration will be given to cooperation projects which include communication actions aimed at people in Barcelona.
Each organisation can present up to three projects, with the submission of applications and complementary documentation exclusively online.
Full information on the subsidy call can be found on the City Council website.
Delivery on a commitment
The volume of subsidies, along with other actions by the Directorate for Global Justice and International Cooperation, again delivers on the commitment to allocate 0.7% of the City Council’s own income to these types of projects, a goal accomplished in 2015.
