The Migration Youth and Children Platform (MYCP) Igniting Impact Micro-Grants Programme has opened its latest call for applications, inviting youth-led initiatives addressing global challenges to apply for funding support.
The micro-grants are intended to support initiatives working in the areas of gender justice, health, human trafficking, and climate mobility
The programme offers grants ranging from €500 to €750 to nonprofits, Community Interest Companies (CICs) or their equivalents, as well as active unregistered groups.
The micro-grants are designed to support initiatives working in the following focus areas:
- Gender justice
- Health
- Human trafficking
- Climate mobility
In addition to project-related activities, the funds may also be used to support internal team well-being.
To be eligible, initiatives must:
- Be youth-led, with decision-makers under the age of 30.
- Directly benefit displaced persons.
- Present a realistic, impactful, and community-driven approach.
Examples of eligible uses for the funds include:
- Youth leadership and advocacy through grassroots campaigns and digital policy labs.
- Direct support for displaced persons, including mentorship, legal aid, and integration programmes.
- Climate action via adaptation hubs and sustainable job training.
- Gender justice and health initiatives, such as trauma-informed spaces and health access for women and girls.
- Arts, media, and public awareness campaigns.
- Team well-being support, including funding for respite and mental health initiatives.
- In addition to project-related activities, the funds can also be used to strengthen internal team well-being.
Applicants must also:
- Be able to receive funds in Euros.
- Complete basic reporting once the funds have been spent.
- Submit applications in English.
- Ensure applications are authentic, as AI-generated applications will not be prioritised.
MYCP does not fund political organizations or activities and does not support initiatives linked to crimes against humanity, injustice, people smuggling, exploitation, or harm.
Therefore, the programme is committed to ethical, rights-based, and community-driven projects that create meaningful social impact. Preference will be given to existing projects with small funding gaps rather than entirely new initiatives.
Application deadline:
30th April at noon GMT.
Important to note:
- Only one submission per organisation is permitted.
- Due to the high volume of applications, only successful applicants will be contacted.
- Individual feedback will not be provided.
