BVLA (Fund)

What is it about?

The Fund supports projects and initiatives in Latin America that offer various types of training. The training courses must aim to significantly improve the chances of integration of socially disadvantaged youth and adults. The Fund also supports training courses in Latin America that have a strong social relevance. Awareness-raising initiatives in Belgium on Latin America can also be supported. Rather than infrastructure, the Fund focuses on financing organizational and implementation costs.
