This is particularly true for children and youth from low-income families, many of whom are not seeing their most basic needs, such as food and clothing, being met. To help with this situation, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway have allocated more than €6 million to the Lithuanian programme for children and youth at risk. A call for proposals under this programme is now open.

  • State enterprises
  • Religious organisations

  • Associations

  • Creation and modernisation of the infrastructures of child day care centres with open space for youth
  • Development of services for child day care centres 
  • Development of inter-institutional cooperation
  • Acquisition of measures for child day care centres.
