DiscoverEU Inclusion Action

Who Can Participate?

• Young people with fewer opportunities aged between 18 and 21 years old and legally residents in the countries of their sending organisation. Accompanying persons are not to be considered as participants of the activity but are eligible for support under certain budget categories such as travel costs, individual support, inclusion support for participants and exceptional costs. Accompanying persons involved must be at least 18 years old.
• Priority given to participants with fewer opportunities
• Participation through organisations or informal groups

An eligible participating organisation can be:

• a non-profit organisation, association, NGO; a public body at local, regional, national level; a social enterprise; a profit-making body active in corporate social responsibility and with proven experience in the youth field, provided its involvement does not have a commercial purpose and is not aimed at generating profit;

• an informal group of young people established in an EU Member State or third country associated to the Programme.

The same organisation (one OID) cannot be involved in more than 5 applications per deadline in this action, either as applicant or partner.
