Description

1) Objective

This call aims to support the formation and strengthening of national Roma civil society coalitions to advocate effectively for the rights and inclusion of Roma communities. Selected coalitions will engage in joint advocacy, monitoring, and awareness-raising activities, with a view to influencing national policies and ensuring the implementation of national Roma strategic frameworks. While also new and other already established coalitions are encouraged to apply, this call aims to specifically build on the results achieved by the Roma Civil Monitoring project (2021-2025), through which National Roma Coalitions monitored the implementation of national Roma strategic frameworks and advocated for a better implementation of the framework on national level.

The ROVA project launches its first call for proposals in 3 lots:

  • LOT 2: Call for proposals from individual NGOs registered and operating in other EU Member States (OTHER THAN Bulgaria, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Spain, available funding 200,000€ – max. grant per project 20,000€).
  • LOT 3: Call for proposals from national Roma coalitions from EU Member States (available funding 225,000€ – max grant per project 15,000€)
