Que finance cet appel ?

Scope

The Social Power project supports initiatives by civil society organisations in Spain that address three thematic rights agendas, particularly where there is inequality or discrimination:

• decent employment in a fair productive system;
• gender justice and diversity;
• social protection and housing.

These agendas provide a practical framework for advancing fundamental rights and EU values.

Evaluation criteria

• Relevance (up to 40 points, minimum 25): social need, fit with the call priorities, understanding of the rights situation and experience with target groups. Organisations based outside Madrid and Barcelona (municipalities under 1 million inhabitants) receive 3 bonus points.
• Quality and coherence (up to 40 points, with a minimum of 3 points for the budget sub-criterion): project design, feasibility, gender mainstreaming, clear indicators and a realistic budget.
• Impact (up to 20 points): social innovation, empowerment, alliances, participation and influence on public policy.

Selection

Only proposals with at least 70 out of 100 points are considered. The final selection also takes account of thematic distribution, risk assessment and budget review. Evaluation combines automated tools with human oversight, including a generative AI tool that provides a preliminary analysis against predefined criteria.
