Neighbourhood initiative

About the grant

The Neighbourhood Initiative supports local projects that provide space in a neighbourhood and aim to strengthen community, contribute to cohesion, increased wellbeing and health. Support can be applied for by non-profit organisations or public benefit foundations with a Swedish organisation number and completed financial statements for at least one year. Projects must target the public in the target group's neighbourhood and be conducted over 1-9 months. Support can be applied for projects differing from the organisation's ordinary activities and financed at least 50% by the support sought. The project must be conducted in Sweden and contribute to people meeting and feeling community in the neighbourhood. Support does not finance ordinary activities, political or religious efforts, profit-making projects, private individuals or organisations that have received support the same year before.
