National Youth Council of Ireland is now taking applications for One World Week mini-grants 2018. These grants are provided for activities and events related to this year’s One World Week theme which focuses on Activism & the Sustainable Development Goals.
Grant applications of up to a maximum of €400 will be considered.
Applications should address at least ONE of the Sustainable Development Goals. Issues should be explored from political, economic, technological, environmental and cultural viewpoints. That do the Sustainable Development Goals mean to your community? What actions can you take/are you taking? What do you want the world to look like by 2030?
Funded applications should look at actions that can be taken at a personal, local, national and global level – PLiNGs!
