The office announced that the ceremony at which the grants will be awarded will be held at 1400 hours today. The grants will be given to 20 associations.
The office recalls that the government has launched a HRK 120 million (€16 million) scheme called “Strengthening the capacity of civil society organizations to respond to the needs of the local community” for projects designed to contribute to the even regional development and to the economic and democratic development of the country.
Specifically, the scheme “seeks to strengthen the capacity of CSOs active in local communities to implement activities tailored to local problems and to work directly in areas funded by the European Social Fund (employment, education, social inclusion, good governance) at the local level, but also improve the capacity of civil society organizations to provide an effective response to the needs of the local community in crisis situations.”
