Description
Playing for Peace - Strengthening Community Relations through Football
The global objective of this Call for Proposals is to strengthening civil society actions in peace building and conflict transformation, focusing on initiatives which are likely to have an impact on people’s everyday lives.
The specific objective of this Call for Proposals is to support practical actions aiming at rebuilding mutual trust through reconciliation, building capacity for conflict resistance, empowering marginalized parties and launching joint development policies and strategies. These initiatives should broaden the base of support for the Middle East Peace Process through the promotion of communication and understanding and by showing the advantages of working for mutual benefit with tangible results. To this end, initiatives under this programme can be undertaken by each country or jointly within and between Mediterranean Partner Countries (see footnote 1) or EU Member States or countries that are beneficiaries of Pre-Accession Assistance or Member States of the EEA.
