Projektstöd mångfald

Projektstöd mångfald is a grant program offered by Ystad Municipality to support associations that want to integrate underrepresented groups in their activities. The program aims to ensure that all people have the right to an active leisure time regardless of factors such as gender, ethnicity, disability, or sexual orientation. The grant supports initiatives to open up associations for underrepresented groups and create long-term structural changes. Eligible activities include those that increase participation among underrepresented groups, involve them as organizers (not just consumers), challenge existing stereotypes, address groups with different ethnic backgrounds, facilitate participation for people with disabilities, and ensure equal opportunities for men and women, boys and girls to participate in association activities. Applications must be submitted before the project starts and include a project description with budget. Associations with child and youth activities must also submit a children's rights plan.
