The Support Fund : Funding and disboursment process

-         There is no restriction concerning the global cost of each project. However, the amount of the budget planned has to fit with the capacities of the submitting organization.

-         The amount of the support cannot exceed 75% maximum of the global budget of the project. These 75% cannot exceed 20 000 €.

-         The other funds must be provided by the submitting organizations who can valorise up to 5% of the global budget.

-         The valorisation must correspond to contributions in kind, suitable to the project’s framework (examples: putting premises at the disposal of the project for meetings, volunteers, hosting meetings and events, mutual donations from local community, etc…). The valorisation will have to be justified.

-          Budgets and reports have to be in Euros.

-         The funds will be allocated in two steps: the first payment will cover the first five months of the co-funded project and the second payment will be disbursed after the field visit of the Ramallah coordination office and the review of the narrative and financial reports.

-         The first ‘funds request’ must be based on a first five months budget forecast.

-         The second ‘funds request’ can occur during the fourth month after the first payment. In this case, organizations must justify 75% of the first five months budget forecast.

-         An agreement will be signed between the Platform and the organization running the selected project.
