Discover Funding Opportunities

ULF (Youth Quality of Life Fund) is a grant program that provides funding to student councils and youth councils in Innlandet, Norway for inclusive and empowerment-promoting initiatives for and with youth. The program aims to strengthen mental health and quality of life among young people, promote inclusion, belonging, well-being and social sustainability, and stimulate real youth participation in the development and implementation of measures. Projects must be developed and implemented with both students and staff, cannot be single events but part of larger year-long initiatives, must support development and testing of new measures (not continuation of existing ones), be universally accessible to all youth who want to participate, be knowledge-based building on research and local expertise, and include evaluation and sharing of results. The program is part of Innlandet County's comprehensive public health work and supports UN Sustainable Development Goals 3, 4, 10, and 17.
