Elevated backing for "Living democracy" initiatives
In an effort to promote democracy, enhance diversity, and prevent extremism, the German Federal Ministry for Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth has launched the "Democracy Lives!" program. This initiative offers funding for local and regional projects that focus on safeguarding democratic values at the grassroots level.
For those interested in applying for this funding, the deadline for submitting applications is October 5, 2024. The city of Lübeck is one of the areas where projects are being considered. The application form and further information can be found at www.demokratieluebeck.de/foerderung.
The coordination office for this program is located at Sprungtuch e.V., and contact persons for applicants are Lava Darwish and Julie Kever, who can be reached at [email protected].
It is essential to note that projects must clearly contribute to promoting democratic culture, inclusivity, diversity, or the prevention of right-wing extremism, hate crimes, and political violence. Applications typically require a detailed project description outlining objectives, target groups, intended impact, and methods. A defined budget plan and timeline are also necessary.
Collaboration or involvement of local stakeholders, especially in areas such as Lübeck, can strengthen the application. Compliance with legal and administrative regulations is also crucial.
For precise, up-to-date requirements, deadlines, and how to apply—especially with a focus on Lübeck—it is advisable to consult the official website of the German Federal Ministry of the Interior or the specific program portal for "Democracy Lives!" or to contact the local coordination office for advice.
The Google Maps coordinates for Lübeck are available for navigation, making it easier for applicants to reach the city and engage with the local community. The decision on the funding of the submitted projects will be made at a steering committee meeting on October 30, 2024.
For those seeking additional guidance or consultation, the coordination and specialist office at Sprungtuch e.V. is available to assist applicants. Further information on the federal program "Democracy Lives!" can be found at demokratie-leben.de. The source of the photo in the article is HL.
