EuropeAid is the ‘one-stop shop’ for European Aid Development and Co-operation Funding. The EU provides grants to countries throughout the world in need of assistance. This scheme allows third parties, such as BU, to access funding in turn for activities supporting the aims of these grants. This is to ensure the quality of EU aid and its effectiveness.
Fundign is available to support:
- Designing EU development policies
- Governance and Human Rights
- Human Development
- Food and Natural Resources
- Economy and Trade
The website gives more information on current calls, with the advanced search allowing you to limit your search, for example, to specific regions or themes.
If you are interested in applying to this scheme, please read the funding guidance and contact Paul Lynch, Senior Officer for the EU team in RKE operations, if you decide to go ahead.
