Themes
By means of (small) subsidies to progressive projects, aimed at young people by young people, Alert tries to develop a fundamental change in society which aims at an equitable distribution of power, knowledge, capital and a an environmentally-friendly way of producing.
Alert does not support youth projects which mainly focus on culture, welfare, direct care, income generation, sports, education and health. Alert is an independent fund and therefore does not support political parties. We do not subsidize exchange projects, study / training and intervention projects by Dutch organizations in the South.
In the review process of the proposals we receive, Alert prioritizes certain issues that she considers important.
These include the following themes:
1. Social, Economic and Political Participation
2. Environment and Sustainability
3. Emancipation, Gender, and Sexual Rights
4. Peace and Dialogue
5. Human Rights and Global Justice
