Call for Proposal “Our Food. Our Future”: Join the fight for food justice

Our Food. Our Future is a European Union EC DEAR-funded project that started in March 2020 and brings together 16 civil society organizations in 13 countries.
Our vision is to build a strong coalition of young people (ages 15 – 35 years old) across Europe and work together in the pursuit of our common vision: A socially just and sustainable food system.
Our main approach is awareness-raising and mobilization of young people across Europe. The youth will be engaged through a pan-European campaign, in their individual countries, with current research, and interactive engagement formats while multipliers such as journalists, bloggers/vloggers, and influencers will attract and mobilize youth to be part of changing narrative and behavior in Europe which reflect a socially just and sustainable food system.

Available sub-grants: Our Food. Our Future will provide financial assistance to one third party (sub-grantee) from each of the following European countries: Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia
