This is an opportunity to receive EUR 5,000 to implement a digital solution to improve your community.
Take on electronic services for citizens, open databases, digital channels of communication between the government and the community, platforms for combating fakes and manipulations, or tell Ukrainian civil servants about the latest changes in EU digital legislation — you will have six months to implement your idea in Ukraine, the EU, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Armenia, Georgia, or Moldova.
For inspiration, look at the website's portfolio of past competition winners to better understand which projects the scholarship supports.
The programme is funded by the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Facility. This is one of thousands of EU opportunities for Ukraine.
What do I get?
- Individual training, coaching and EUR 5,000 to cover events, promotional costs and travel. You will also be able to pay for the work of an accountant, rent of office space and legal services for opening an account, as long as these costs do not exceed 10% of the total budget
