02/07/2017 - Προθεσμία αιτήσεων: ACT4FREEMOVEMENT Training Series (Πολωνία/Ισπανία/Μ. Βρετανία)

European Alternatives is collaborating with Krytyka Polityczna and European Citizens Action Service (ECAS) to train citizens and activists to defend freedom of movement and fight the increasing insecurity in the rights of citizens in the EU.

You will be provided with training from experts in EU citizen rights, in campaigning and in project management and tasked with conceptualizing, developing, and rolling out a campaign against restrictions to freedom of movement for European citizens.

The trainings will take place in Warsaw in September 2017, Madrid in October 2017 and London in January 2018 and will focus on:

• Understanding the drivers for hostile or ignorant attitudes to mobile European citizens and addressing practices of discrimination;
• Learning how to influence decision-making processes and complaints mechanisms at the EU level;
• Developing and running campaigns and projects ideas advocating for the protection of freedom of movement and of EU citizens rights;
• Identifying and networking with effective partner organizations as well as with grassroots activists from across Europe for continuous collaboration.

Following the trainings, activists will be provided with the opportunity to apply for small grants to carry out their campaign in their countries/cities/localities.

For this, we’ll not only provide you with the money, but we’ll be there to support you throughout the process – helping with campaigning planning and design, communicating your project and financial planning amongst others.

These campaigns will last up to six months and will be presented at the Campus of European Alternatives in the summer of 2018 in Florence.

The registration fee to attend the training series is of EUR 150 and includes travel costs, food and accommodation costs and training materials.
