The aim of this call is to contribute to education and awareness-raising to prevent and combat gender-based violence, in particular by changing attitudes and behaviours towards the phenomenon. Such education and awareness-raising should focus on providing girls and boys (under 18 years old) with information and skills related to gender equality, healthy relationships, gender stereotypes and roles, respect for others etc. Such initiatives should encourage critical thinking, so girls and boys challenge social norms that contribute to perpetuating gender-based violence. They should empower young people to claim their rights and to protect themselves in risky or violent situations, while ensuring that this does not only put the responsibility on the victim and contribute to victim-blaming. Awareness-raising and education aimed at encouraging bystander intervention is also welcome.

Awareness-raising and education activities can cover all forms of gender-based violence or focus on specific forms, such as female genital mutilation, forced marriage, or target particular groups who are vulnerable to such violence, such as LGBTI, ethnic or religious minorities, migrants etc.

Proposals shall complement the efforts of the EU in combating gender-based violence.

Deadline: 08/03/2017

This call does not aim to fund projects addressing principally:

• information to children on rights of the child
• general awareness-raising on rights of the child
• research on rights of the child
• child victims, or violence against children (can be funded under other areas of the Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme, such as Daphne’s topic for action grants to support integrated and multidisciplinary child-centred approaches to child victims of violence, REC-RDAP-CHIL-AG-2016).
