- support and capacity building of migrant and refugee women;
- promotion of the fundamental rights of migrant and refugee women;
- Promoting the role of migrant and refugee women in democratic dialogue, social cohesion, and intercultural solidarity.
Activities may include awareness-raising campaigns; legal assistance and advice; community-based actions or initiatives; and the preparation of alternative dossiers or reports on human rights, particularly those of migrant women.
Small non-profit organizations legally incorporated in an EU member state, provided they are led by migrant and/or refugee women and focus on the protection and promotion of human rights, are eligible to participate; civil society organizations for women's rights or human rights, or led by migrant refugees, with a specific program supporting migrant women.
