Open only to Priority 1 applicants, the fifth call for proposals closed on Thursday 19th May. A total of €8m is available to applicants under this call.
The Programme received 17 applications collectively requesting over €16 million. These applications are now under appraisal and the outcome will be known in late November at the next meeting of the Programme Steering Committee.
With only €355k left and a project in reserve, Priority 2 is not currently open to new applications. Any future calls for proposals will depend on the availability of funding. However, the potential for a further substantial call is limited as the Programme is almost fully committed.
The Programme has two key Priorities, each with two themes:
Priority 1: Knowledge, Innovation and Skills for Growth
- Theme 1: Innovation and Competitiveness
- Theme 2: Skills for Competitiveness & Employment Integration
Priority 2: Climate Change and Sustainable Regeneration
- Theme 1: Climate Change and Sustainable Development
- Theme 2: Sustainable Regeneration of Communities
