The AU-EU Youth Action Lab provides opportunities for youth initiatives in Africa and Europe to implement their ideas and solutions linked to global challenges. The Youth Action Lab is part of the ambitions laid out in the EU’s Youth Action Plan!
General Call for Proposals
The AU-EU Youth Action Lab provides the opportunity for youth initiatives in Africa and Europe to submit proposals to apply for funding to implement your own ideas and solutions linked to global challenges!
The ambition is to support how young people link up across and between the African and European continents. To link youth initiatives to their peers to share, learn and collaborate, and to bring your voices and solutions to policy-makers at different levels, including the European Union and African Union!
The coming 3 years, the Youth Action Lab will launch various call for proposals campaigns inviting youth in their diversity to apply. Eligible countries are Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe and countries part of the European Union.
The Youth Action Lab has 4 different grant types – each with a different focus, but all with a similar ambition: as youth initiative you are supported in a powershifting way!
Why do we call it powershifting grants? Because of 3 reasons!
Nothing about youth without youth
A Youth Advisory Board of the Youth Action Lab will review and select the proposals to receive funding.
We strive for grants
We strive for grants that facilitate and nurture stability, resilience, financial security and organisational capacity.
