The Daphne III programme aims to contribute to the protection of children, young people and women against all forms of violence and attain a high level of health protection, well-being and social cohesion. Its specific objective is to contribute to the prevention of, and the fight against all forms of violence occurring in the public or the private domain, including sexual exploitation and trafficking of human beings. Lastly, it also aims to take preventive measures and provide support and protection for victims and groups at risk.

The call aims at supporting projects that support victims of violence in line with the specific objectives to prevent and combat all forms of violence against children, young people and women, as well as other groups at risk of violence in close relationships; and to protect the victims of such violence (Daphne strand).

Second, it aims to co-fund projects that enhance the rights of crime victims in line with the specific objective to facilitate effective access to justice for all, including promoting and supporting the rights of victims of crime (Access to justice strand).

Applicants and partners must be legally constituted public or private organisations, or international organisations. 

Non-profit: The applicant must be a non-profit organisation. Bodies and organisations which are profit-oriented shall have access to grants only as partners.

‘Non-profit organisation’ can be:

1. a legal entity that is by its legal form non-profit-making; or
2. has a legal or statutory obligation not to distribute profits to its shareholders or individual members. The provision that profits will not be distributed must be clearly stipulated either in the law or in the statutes of the organisation; decisions on (not) distributing profits made by its managing board, associates, stakeholders, members or representatives are not sufficient proof of the non-profit nature.

Daphne strand: The project must be transnational and must be submitted by a partnership of eligible organisations from at least three different eligible countries.

Access to justice strand: Projects under this strand can be either national or transnational and may be submitted by a single applicant (in case of national projects only) or by a partnership of eligible organisations.

The EU grant requested cannot be lower than 75 000 €. There is no upper limit.

The funding under this call is based on the co-financing principle: the grant cannot constitute more than 80% of overall eligible project costs.

Any funding that should cover the costs of the project other than the grant requested from the EU should be at least 20% of the total eligible costs and may come from the Applicant, a Partner or another organisation.
