Italy.

Total budget: EUR 300,000; EUR 50,000 for each selected organisation, up to six organisations. The plan starts in January 2027 and may last up to 18 months. Applications must be submitted by a single organisation; partners are not permitted.

For organisations in the network

This opportunity is relevant to recently established organisations in the network seeking to strengthen their management and sustainability. Focus Europe may consider sharing it with eligible partners; its own establishment in 2007 means that it cannot apply directly to this edition.
