Support measures for migrant women’s integration

The AMIF-2025 grant call is part of the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) aimed at enhancing the socio-economic integration of migrant women in the EU. This initiative, managed by the European Commission’s Directorate-General Migration and Home Affairs, addresses barriers faced by migrant women, particularly in labor market access and social integration. Eligible applicants include public authorities at local, regional, and national levels, economic and social partners such as employers and trade unions, civil society organizations, nonprofits, and international organizations. The funding type consists of non-repayable financial support provided as grants under the AMIF framework. Projects are required to be collaborative and transnational, needing participation from at least three EU Member States, although they can include third-country nationals legally residing in the EU. Denmark is excluded, and Danish entities can only participate without EU funding. The focus is primarily on social inclusion and labor market integration, with additional attention to sectors like healthcare access, education, digital literacy, and childcare support. The total budget for this grant call is €34 million, with €9 million specifically allocated for projects addressing the integration of migrant women. Individual projects may range from €200,000 to €1 million, though exact funding amounts have not been specified. This grant call employs an open, single-stage application process, with a submission deadline set for September 16, 2025. It is expected that applicants will cover at least 10% of project costs through co-funding. Although specific success rates are not provided, historical success rates for AMIF calls generally range from 10% to 39%. In summary, this grant aims to support tailored intervention projects that facilitate the integration of migrant women across the EU, encouraging collaboration and innovative solutions to enhance their societal participation. The overall goal is to create sustainable support systems that address specific barriers faced by migrant women, thus promoting gender-sensitive integration strategies.
