The National Youth Agency: Partners in Innovation funding 2005-6

1 min read
As part of its Local Government Association-funded programme for supporting youth work, The NYA, in collaboration with the Partners in Innovation (PIN) committee, intends to commission innovative and developmental work in 2005-06 around the following themes:

- Young people's health, wellbeing and safety in the community

- The contribution of youth work to wider services for young people

- Youth arts as a vehicle for young people's voice in the community

- The role of young people in performance management and quality assurance in services for young people

Proposals will be considered for projects to run from 1 April 2005 to 31 March 2006. Grants will normally be in the range of 20 -50K, although the emphasis is on projects that add significant value regardless of size.

The Local Government Association and The NYA will expect projects to provide learning and experience for the benefit of youth work locally, regionally and nationally. Dissemination of findings is therefore an integral part of the role of the PIN commissioned projects, and evidence of pre-planning of this key aspect will be sought.

Proposers and partners to proposals can come from public, independent, voluntary or community sectors, including local authority bodies. The NYA seeks particularly to support projects which encourage active partnerships. Proposals can be for local, regional or national projects.

- The closing date is Friday 21 January 2005. To request further details and an application form, email pin2005-6funding@nya.org.uk.
