A 5-stage project assessment

1

You can submit your project on our website, as step 1 of the application process, when the call for projects opens.
2

We preselect projects together with our staff and with the help of a committee of expert employees. If you are preselected, a meeting is arranged to confirm the suitability of your project.
3

If you are selected, you can complete the second part of the application.
4

Your project is then passed on to three or four expert employees, who will send you their questions and comments before talking to you directly.
5

Your project is put forward to the Board of Directors, which decides whether to support the project and votes on how much financial assistance is to be provided for selected projects.
