The overall indicative amount made available under this call for proposals from the 2010 budget is EUR 4,000,000 (subject to the decision of the Budgetary Authority and the subsequent approval of the 2010 action plan by the European Commission) plus an additional amount of EUR 348,905 from the 2009 budget.
The European Union reserves the right not to award all available funds. Equally, these amounts could be increased should more funds become available.
Where the financial envelopes indicated above cannot be used due to insufficient quality or number of proposals received, the European Union reserves the right to reallocate the remaining funds to another geographic area or to fund other components of the thematic programme “Non-State Actors and Local Authorities in Development”.
Size of grants:
Any grant awarded under this programme must fall between the following minimum and maximum amounts:
- minimum amount: EUR 500,000
- maximum amount: EUR 1,000,000
A grant may not be for less than 50% of the total eligible costs of the action.
For proposals submitted by civil society organisations from India the grant may not exceed 90% of the total eligible costs of the action; for proposals submitted by European civil society organisations, the grant may not exceed 75% of the total eligible costs of the actions (see also section 2.1.4). The balance (i.e. the difference between the total cost of the action and the amount requested from the EU) must be financed from the applicant’s or partners’ own resources, or from sources other than the European Union budget.
Under this call for proposals, only concept notes should be submitted initially. The EC will seek detailed proposals only after review of the concept notes. The deadline to submit the concept notes is 16 August 2010. For more information, visit the following links:
