The World YWCA is excited to announce a “Call for Interest” for the Network Solutions arm of the partnership with the European Commission and the Big Six youth organisations, supporting youth-led solutions that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through the EU Youth Empowerment Fund. The fund aims to empower young people to tackle community challenges and contribute to the SDGs. In Round 1 of this funding, seven (7) YWCA National Associations were awarded funding in a pool of 604 entities being funded globally across Big Six Youth Organisations. You can read more about these ongoing projects on our social media and website.
You are invited to submit an Expression of Interest outlining your plans to engage young women in this groundbreaking initiative. After you are selected, World YWCA will invite you to co-create your application, budget, and work plan.
Who can apply?
This Call for Interest is open to all YWCA entities, including World YWCA-affiliated National Member Associations, Local Member Associations, and YWCA youth Alumni Leaders from eligible countries. We encourage YWCAs with a strong track record of youth engagement and experience working on issues aligned with the SDGs to apply
