Deadlines to submit your project

The Program will be implemented through two types of project calls: a continuous annual call and another with a fixed submission deadline. The details are specified below.

Continuous Annual Call for Projects:

Applications are processed as they are received, starting from April 1st. This call for projects closes when the remaining funds are insufficient to finance all submitted projects. The closing date will be published in due course on our website. Confirmation of acceptance or rejection of your application will be provided no later than 6 weeks after the submission date.

Fixed Deadline Call for Projects:

This call for projects begins once the continuous call for projects is closed and ends on the following February 15th. It provides a funding opportunity for all projects that could not be financed under the continuous call for projects. Confirmation of acceptance or rejection of your application will be provided no later than 6 weeks after the submission deadline, which is February 15th.

It is also possible to submit a grant application retroactively, that is, after the project has taken place, provided it is within the same financial year.

You will receive confirmation of receipt and compliance of your application by email within the week following its submission.
