Advisory Board on Immigration and Integration declares an application process for the grant for immigrant associations’ capacity building. The grant may be awarded for one of the following purposes: · volunteer training, lobbying and organizational democracy for the staff, board members, members and volunteers · IT-systems and consulting services that could be seen as one-off investments in strengthening the organization · strategy work · communications development. The applicant must be an association with more than half (50%) of its members having immigrant backgrounds. The applicant should by definition promote active citizenship and integration, among other things, by means of supporting their members’ employability, Finnish or Swedish language training, education and general welfare. The grant is not intended to fund the associations’ core work, but their structural development. The size of the grant will vary according to the number of people participating in the strengthening activity and according to the size of the target group benefiting from the development action. The representatives of associations may book a consultation time (45 minutes) for their grant application between February 9 and 13th, 9:00-15:00.
