The British Council is looking for UK local delivery partners for its Active Citizens programme.
Grants of up to £7,500 are available for people who are running voluntary or community sector organisations, or networks supporting active participation and social justice (such as tackling poverty and inequality) in their communities, and who are interested in sharing and learning from others worldwide.
The programme aims to connect organisations and people involved in local community initiatives and offers them the chance to gain an international perspective on the work they are doing and to contribute to social research on global themes, develop cross-cultural engagement skills and international professional networks.
Deadline: 9 July 2010
See the Active Citizens website for more information.
