Starting new projects

Our third call for project proposals was open to all eligible institutions from the programme area's 36 countries. The call was open from 20 March to 7 June 2024 (12:00 noon CEST - Paris time).

We received over 200 project applications. Have a look at the third call figures to learn more.

Joining approved projects

Because our first and second call projects were approved at a time when opportunities to work with the seven new countries did not yet exist, we wanted to give them the chance to extend of their partnership.

The restricted call for project proposals was open from 20 March to 7 June 2024, at 12:00 p.m.(midday) CEST (Paris time).

Our approved projects could add up-to two new partners to their partnership from the seven new countries.

55 projects applied to the restricted call. The results will be announced soon.
