Operational Evaluation
In a recent operational evaluation, external experts assessed the effectiveness and efficiency of the programme management system. They concluded that the programme is managed smoothly and well on track with planned activities and set targets.
Our last call opened on 4 March and closed on 5 July 2019. We received 24 proposals for projects that want to capitalise on outputs and results of already funded projects. With this final call we aim to encourage closer coordination with partners from directly-managed EU funding instruments such as Horizon 2020 or LIFE. READ MORE
