The applicant wishing to attach a written document demonstrating the mandate it has received by a regional public authority as laid down in section 2.2 of the call for proposals, can do so by attaching the written document to the letter of intents (please see A57 f).

 Clarification related to the size of the concept note:

The call for proposals requires applicants to complete a concept note of five pages. Depending on the font size and the number of characters being used, the amount of space available for filling in the concept note may vary. Therefore, the maximum amount of characters has been increased to 15.000.

There is no template for the letter of intent. Applicants are invited to upload the letters of intent in the e-submission system (SEP).

IMPORTANT REMINDER!

Applicants are reminded that the participation of any beneficiary in more than one proposal will lead to the exclusion of all the proposals from the evaluation, as they will be considered ineligible. The system does not detect that a given beneficiary is included in more than one proposal, and does therefore not give any warning.
Applicants are strongly advised to double check with their partners to ensure that they are not applying in more than one consortium.
