IMPACT4VALUES

IMPACT4VALUES is a Slovenian-Croatian support program for civil society organizations that promote and protect European values ​​through their activities. The program provides financial and organizational support to smaller organizations so that they can better contribute to the protection, promotion and awareness of EU fundamental rights and values.

The program

Impact4values ​​​​​​​​is implemented within the framework of the EU program Citizens, Equality, Rights, Values ​​(CERV). CERV is a European program worth around 1.55 billion euros, with which the European Commission wants to protect and promote the rights and values ​​contained in the EU Treaties and the Charter of Fundamental Rights. The program covers the areas of the previous programs Europe for Citizens, Rights, Equality and Citizenship and DAPHNE.

By supporting non-governmental organizations/civil society organizations, the CERV program strengthens the rights and values ​​common to all EU member states. Rights and values ​​are based on the principles of pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and gender equality. By promoting civic and democratic participation, the program supports the development of open, democratic, equal and inclusive societies based on the rule of law. Companies that encourage citizens to be active citizens and enrich the diversity of the European Union based on shared values, history and experience.

The CERV program is managed by the European Executive Agency for Education and Culture (EACEA), which at the end of 2021 announced the first public tender for the selection of organizations capable of distributing funds and strengthening the capacity of non-governmental organizations in EU member states. The Slovenian-Croatian consortium consisting of the Center for Information, Cooperation and Development of Non-Governmental Organizations – CNVOS, Slagalica – Foundation for Local Community Development and Solidarna – Foundation for Human Rights and Solidarity successfully applied for this competition with the Impact4Values ​​program.

The total value of the Impact4Values ​​program is 4,250,000 euros, of which 2,350,000 euros will be awarded to non-governmental organizations through public tenders, while the other part will be used for strengthening organizations (training, mentoring), networking, program management, etc.

As part of Impact4Values, we will announce 3 public tenders and conduct 4 multi-day trainings for project holders and other associations, a series of online workshops, organize mentoring support and establish an online library of materials.
