DG JUSTICE Newsletter on funding opportunities & funded projects

Under the CERV programme, the Union values call makes 51 million available to support grass-root civil society organisations and there is also the first-ever call to support training and awareness about the EU Charter of fundamental rights and strategic litigation. Under the justice programme, judicial professionals can benefit from the justice programme’s transnational nature. In total, for 2022, 143,4 million are available for the CERV programme and 13,3 million for the justice programme. Discover below all the 2022 calls, you cannot miss these funding opportunities!

The Union values call is a novelty and also the biggest call of the CERV programme. 51 million are available to support grass-root civil society organisations through a new funding scheme (cascading grant).

You look for financial support for projects on citizens’ participation? Then, the citizens engagement and participation call is what you are looking for! This is another big call of the CERV programmes with 17 million available to fund projects of transnational partnerships and networks directly involving citizens.

Then have a look at the Horizon Europe programme!

Also in light of the new calls for proposals, we would like to draw your attention to some of the main novelties in terms of grant and financial management brought by the new MFF (Multiannual Financial Framework) for the period 2021-2027.

The European Commission has revised its approach to evaluating and selecting proposals for funding. Applicants are strongly encouraged to include in their proposal a gender perspective and conduct a gender analysis. For practical advices, please consult the guide developed by the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE).
