Since October 2020, the Women's Shelter Coordination Office has been supporting women's shelters and specialist counseling centers in professionally addressing the digital challenges of the COVID-2.0 pandemic with the "Help System 19" project. The project has now been extended until December 31, 2022. Projects for digital development can thus be implemented until July 2022, and applications can be submitted until March 31, 2022.
What can be applied for?
To respond to digital transformations and needs arising from the coronavirus pandemic, applications can be submitted, for example, to participate in training courses on online counseling or data security. Funding can also be requested for the use of professional interpreting services to support and counsel women and girls affected by violence.
How to proceed?
Applications can be submitted via an online portal from July 01, 2021, until March 31, 2022.
The funding criteria, detailed instructions for the online portal and the FAQs for the "Help System 2.0" project in its current version can be viewed on our website: www.frauenhauskoordinierung.de/arbeitsfelder/hilfesystem-20/.
