Applications Are Open for the Youth Voices Third-Party Funding Mechanism

8 June 2026

Applications are now open for the Youth Voices Third-Party Funding Mechanism under the AU-EU Youth Voices Lab – Power of the Collective, a programme co-funded by the European Union.

The mechanism supports youth-led organizations and groups working to amplify the voices of hard-to-reach young people and strengthen youth-led advocacy across Africa and Europe. Through this funding opportunity, selected initiatives can receive grants of up to €10,000 to support activities that promote meaningful participation, inclusion, advocacy, community engagement, and youth-responsive decision-making.

The AU-EU Youth Voices Third-Party Funding Mechanism is designed to support young people and youth-led groups in turning community priorities into concrete action. It aims to create space for local voices to influence wider advocacy efforts and contribute to more inclusive decision-making processes.

Eligible youth-led organizations and groups are invited to carefully review the official information and submit their applications before the deadline.

Deadline for applications: 29 June 2026, 23:59 EAT
