  • You can build a consortium with a lead applicant and co-applicants.
  • You want to teach or raise awareness about the persecution of LGBTIQ+ people and other minorities.
  • You plan to digitise historical material or witness testimonies for education.
  • Your activities take place in EU countries or countries associated to the programme.

It is not for you if…

  • Your project is about remembering Roma victims: the call sends it to a separate priority.

The call does not state the part you pay yourself or any funding rate: ask the help desk before you build the budget. The total budget of the call must be checked in the official call.
