Led by the Ministry of Culture, we are helping to implement a project called ‘Supporting Community Activities That Promote Integration’ which aims to support the active participation of people from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds, newly arrived immigrants, and returnees in community life. The project activities are planned for 2024–2029 and will be carried out by our foundation, the Estonian Folk Culture Centre, and the National Foundation of Civil Society. The total budget of the project, amounting to 5.2 million euros, is provided by the European Social Fund+ (ESF+) and co-financed by the Estonian government.
