CERV National Contact Point in Lithuania 2023-2024

ended

As the EU CERV programme is an essential instrument for EU policy goals on rights, equality and values, it is important for EU member states to bring this instrument into a national level and to disseminate EU policy goals and the new opportunities, provided by the Programme, widely in national, regional and local level. In order to support the European Commission (EC) and the Executive Agency (EACEA) in the implementation of the Programme, to increase accessibility to the CERV programme and to provide impartial guidance to applicants, stakeholders and beneficiaries in Lithuania, National Contact Point (NCP) will continue and expand its activities. Since the CERV programme is already well under way and the awareness of it in Lithuania is increasing, but still not sufficient, NCP will still focus on increasing CERV visibility and accesibility to potential applicants, but also will start to spread the results and success stories in order to encourage more applicants to participate. Our main goal during this project will be to fulfil our chosen Programme promotion strategy, that includes the further development of special CERV dedicated information channels (a website and Facebook page), were all CERV related information is provided and timely updated in national language and organizing or attending CERV related events on purpose to present the Programme to the public, to reach specific target groups and regions, to increase its visibility, to attract participants and to do valorisation. The project is targeted to the public, civil society organizations, other stakeholders applicable for the CERV programme. By implementing this project, we expect to inform a large number of people about the Programme, to attract organizations to participate and to facilitate their participation in the Programme also to contribute to the common goals of the CERV programme and EU policy.
