The Department directed by María Dolores Sánchez announces grants to promote youth associations
The Department of Youth and Employment, headed María Dolores Sánchez, announces grants for partnerships with young people engaged to carry out their projects.
91 associations in 2010 benefited from this initiative.
The main objective is to promote youth associations, to encourage the emergence of community movements and collaborate in the emerging generation of platforms that integrate different groups.
The Governing Board has given approval to the bases of the call for grants for the promotion of youth participation in the municipality, in 2010.
The City Council allocated 130,000 euros to this initiative.
Associations can apply for grants to promote general social activities that foster participation of young people (aged between 8 and 35 years) and their integration in society, stimulate the functioning of associations and youth groups, and support cultural, social, training, leisure and volunteer activities that promote civic participation and citizenship of young people.
Likewise, institutions may apply for grants that are not specifically youth but engaged in activities aimed at this sector of the population.
Organisations interested in this call will then have to present their projects 30 days from the date of publication of the call for subsidies in the BORM.
