GRANT APPLICATION FORM

 

STRUCTURAL GRANT (SG2)

(replacing Category C)

awarded in principle for 2014 and 2015 – to be confirmed after 1 year

 

PRESENTATION

NGO Name	Information taken from registration form
NGO Responsible	Information taken from registration form
NGO Number	Information taken from registration form
NGO Type	Information taken from registration form

 

Before filling in this form, I confirm that the information contained in the registration form is complete and up-to-date (box to tick)

It is important that you update the information contained in your registration form, in particular concerning your national branches/member organisations. Whereas in the past you were asked to indicate your members each year when applying for a Category C grant, you will now only have to fill in this information once on your registration form and make sure that you keep it up-to-date. This information will have a direct influence on the amount awarded for the structural grant (one of the criteria is the number of Council of Europe member states represented in the membership).

Activities already supported

 

To be eligible, your organisation must have had 3 international activities during the previous 3 years – either an EYF grant or an EYC study session. As this structural grant is for 2014-2015, the period for activities already supported concerns 2011-2013. For example, if you had two Category A grants in 2011, a study session in 2012 and a Category A and a Category B grant in 2013 you will be eligible. You will not be eligible if you have not had any EYF grant or EYC study session in 2012 or 2013 (i.e. if your last grant or study session was in 2011), or if you have only organised study sessions.

 

 

You are asked to indicate the activities supported for each year.

 

Example:

 

	Title of the project	Supported by
2013	Category A grant reference	EYF
	Category B grant reference	EYF
2012	Study session “Title”	EYC

You should indicate the amount of the grant requested from the EYF for one year (maximum € 25,000). The amount granted will be decided by the Programming Committee on the basis of a certain number of criteria (number of branches or members, paid staff, volunteers, strategic approach, average EYF grant during the previous 3 years – more information on how the grant will be calculated will be published on the EYF website). If the grant is awarded for 2014, the same amount will be awarded in principle for 2015, based on the validation by the EYF of an interim report after one year.
