In accordance with the call for proposals, the intervention projects may be financed if they comply with the Programme definition of intervention, the objectives of the Programme and the area of support selected by the Applicant and if they obtained at least 75% of the score available. Due to the limited amount earmarked for the call, not all of the proposals scoring above this threshold are able to receive funding.

The Applicants can find the scores and evaluation sheets in the Electronic Grant Application and Management System (EGAMS).
