Resources: Funding focus - Youth in Action - 4.4

What will it fund? Eligible activities include conferences, training courses, seminars, information projects and networking activities. The call for proposals stresses the scheme is looking for innovation so applicants are invited to come up with new ideas they think would be useful. A priority theme is "the integration of young people with fewer opportunities living in suburban areas". Applicants will also be judged on overall Youth in Action priorities - such as European citizenship, participation by young people, cultural diversity and equal opportunities - and the extent to which projects combine co-operation, training and information and have a direct impact on young people and youth leaders. Quantitative factors such as number of partners and countries involved, and diversity of activities will also be applied.
