The call covers four priorities: 

1. Children’s mental health: prevention, protection and support

2. Embedding a rights of the child perspective in actions at national and local level: mainstreaming, national strategies, data, budgeting

3. Children’s engagement and participation: national and local level, to complement activities of the EU Children’s Participation Platform

4. Understanding democratic rights, which starts in childhood: education, creative learning, civic rights

The objective of the call is to respond to children’s current needs and challenges by paying specific attention to the rights of children with specific needs and vulnerabilities, including those who fled the Russian’s war of aggression against Ukraine.

The call links closely to the EU strategy on the rights of the child and the European Health Union: a comprehensive approach to mental health.

The eligibility conditions to participate are set into the call document.
