Aktiv i Buskerud

Aktiv i Buskerud is a regional funding program from Buskerud fylkeskommune (Buskerud County Municipality) that supports initiatives making it easier for everyone to be physically active throughout their lives. The program follows up on the regional action program 'Felles handlingsprogram for økt fysisk aktivitet for alle. Aktiv i Viken, 2021-2022', with a focus on Buskerud-specific needs and conditions. The program aims to promote development and collaboration to implement initiatives in the action program, achieve more regional areas and facilities for physical activity, and create greater diversity in regional activities, areas, and facilities that benefit the population of Buskerud. Priority is given to projects with regional significance, clear anchoring in the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particular focus on inclusion and diversity, and collaborative projects between eligible actors. Funding ranges from NOK 50,000 to NOK 300,000, covering up to 50% of total project costs. The program supports municipalities, voluntary organizations, networks, idealistic foundations with regional ties to Buskerud, and research environments with work areas and interests in Buskerud. Projects must contribute to one or more of five priority areas within physical activity, sports, and outdoor recreation.
