As part of Youth Connect, we are supporting young people to make a difference to gender equality issues by building their leadership capabilities and supporting them to implement activities in their communities.
The project has offered an online course on Leadership for Gender Equality, developed in partnership with Clore Social Leadership.
We are now seeking proposals from EU based organisations to manage a micro grants scheme for alumni of the course. The selected organisation will be responsible for administering the call for proposals, distributing grants to successful applicants, supporting grantees during project implementation, and monitoring and reporting on project results. Through this scheme, social action projects focused on gender equality and women's empowerment will be supported across Europe.

The name of the call on the platform is ‘Youth Connect Gender Equality Grants Europe’.

Submission deadline: 19 October 2026 at 17.00 CEST.
