Programme summary

Programme Concerns

A grant of up to €1.5 million from the programme shall be set aside for a project addressing refugee children, anti-discrimination and combatting hate speech in the education system, implemented in co-operation between the Hellenic Ministry of Education and the European Wergeland Centre.

The programme shall build on the activities implemented and results achieved under the GR08 programme of the EEA Financial Mechanism 2009-2014. Pre-defined projects, to be implemented by Solidarity Now and Athens Municipality with these objectives, shall be elaborated in the concept note.

Bilateral Ambitions

€50,000 shall be allocated to the programme from the fund for bilateral relations. This does not prevent the Joint Committee for Bilateral Funds from allocating additional funds to the programme.
