Overview
The grant opens for submissions on November 7, 2025, and the deadline for applications is January 13, 2026, at 01:00 (Brussels time). The total budget for this grant is €11,000, which will be distributed among a maximum of eight winners, with each grant potentially reaching up to €2,500. The final amount awarded to each winner will depend on the number of successful applicants and the quality and scope of their project proposals.
Eligible applicants include schools, libraries, NGOs, private organizations, and coding clubs, all of which must be formally registered entities. The submission process is a single-stage open call, meaning applicants will submit their proposals once without subsequent rounds of evaluation.

The winners will be announced on social media and partner websites following the selection process, and grant agreements will be signed with the winning organizations. While no co-funding is required, applicants can explore additional funding sources if they wish. This grant program is specifically administered by the Latvian Association of Information and Communication Technology (LIKTA), which operates independently of direct EU funding and responsibility.
This opportunity promotes grassroots initiatives and aims to enhance coding education within Latvia, highlighting the importance of engaging underrepresented groups in digital fields. It reflects a targeted approach to fostering digital literacy among young Europeans, supporting innovative educational methods, and encouraging community-level impact.

Breakdown
Funding Type: The primary financial mechanism is a grant. Specifically, these are small grants.
Consortium Requirement: The text does not explicitly state whether a consortium is required or if single applicants are eligible. However, the focus on supporting "projects" and signing grant agreements with "awarded organizations" suggests that both single organizations and consortia could potentially apply, as long as the project aligns with the call's objectives.
Beneficiary Scope (Geographic Eligibility): The call aims to support projects that align with the values of the European Code Week and promote digital skills across Europe. While the call is launched by a Latvian organization (LIKTA), the geographic scope appears to be pan-European, targeting initiatives within Europe.
Target Sector: The target sector is education and digital skills, specifically focusing on programming, computational thinking, and related digital competencies. The call is aligned with the European Commission's initiative to reinforce the digital skills of young people, especially girls. The topic DIGITAL-2023-SKILLS-04-BOOSTINGDIGIT - Boosting Digital Skills of young pupils, in particular girls, confirms this.

The call also refers to "Europe" in the context of European Code Week and promoting digital skills across Europe.
Project Stage: The call seeks to support projects that "have a significant impact" and "integrate coding into educational contexts." This suggests that the projects should be at least at the development or validation stage, with a clear plan for implementation and impact. The emphasis on "innovative and scalable coding activities" indicates a preference for projects with the potential for wider adoption and replication.
Funding Amount: The total funding available is €11,000. Individual grants will be awarded to a maximum of eight winners, with each winner potentially receiving up to €2,500. The exact amount will depend on the quality and scope of the proposed activities and the remaining available budget.
Application Type: The application type is an open call. The invitation, terms and conditions, and the application form will be published on the EU Code Week platform, the hub’s website, and social media, indicating a publicly accessible application process. The deadline model is single-stage.
Nature of Support: Beneficiaries will receive money in the form of a grant.
Application Stages: The application process appears to be single-stage, as indicated by the "Deadline model single-stage" information. Applicants submit their proposals, which are then evaluated by a selection committee based on published criteria.
Success Rates: The success rate can be estimated. With a maximum of eight winners and an unspecified number of applicants, the success rate is likely to be below 10%, but this is speculative without knowing the number of applications received.
Co-funding Requirement: The text does not explicitly mention a co-funding requirement.
