A note on funding mechanisms under the Active Citizens Fund:

There are two main types of projects:

Partnership projects, which are larger and can go over several years. Only beneficiary country project promoters may initiate the project, Norwegian partners may only be invited to join. At present there are no longer any calls for partnership projects remaining in the 2014-2021 programme.
Bilateral initiatives or bilateral funds projects (both terms are used). These finance activities such as partner search, conferences, workshops, study tours as well as outreach activities and are a more flexible source of funding. Norwegian partners may initiate these partnerships.

For the moment, as we are in the last phase of the 2014-2021 program (with the last projects set to end in 2024), there are no calls for partnership projects. There are still, however, many opportunities for bilateral initiatives.Check the links below for country-specific information.

The information above is updated as frequently as possible, but discrepancies may arise. Check out www.eeagrants.org for an overview of all EEA grants (not limited to the Active Citizens Fund).
