Call for activities in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

The DEAR project “Mindchangers” launched a second call for proposals in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (France) to engage youth in awareness-raising actions on climate change and migrations. “Mindchangers” works with local authorities and civil society organisations to build capacities and to engage youth in SDG-related issues. 

In 2021, Mindchangers supported 16 projects in the region, which are currently under development. Their topics span from broadcasting voices of the Global South on gender issues, to raising awareness on climate change via sports education and outdoor activities. Other sub-granted projects help face discrimination against refugee students in universities. More Information
