The Daphne-CHILD programme is a collaborative initiative led by Eurochild and Terre des hommes (Tdh).
Our mission is to empower grassroots civil society organisations (CSOs) to combat violence against children through a comprehensive 3-year sub-granting and capacity-building programme.
The programme vision aims to:
- Address violence against children and young people, WITH children and young people, in 9 European countries across, by funding interventions that can improve children’s lives;
- Develop capacities of local CSOs working at a local level in 9 countries in the area of violence against children and young people, and create a cross-country learning network for these organisations for peer exchange and mutual learning;
- Inform wider regional work at the European level (EU, Council of Europe etc.) in the area of addressing violence against children across its many forms - both direct and/or indirect, and day-to-day and/or systemic, drawing on lived experiences and practice examples supported by the programme.
The Daphne-CHILD programme is looking to fund projects that engage children meaningfully as part of their implementation.
Funding from €10,000 to €30,000 is available per project, with durations of 12-18 months.
