Small-scale cooperation partnerships

Summary

OBJECTIVES OF THE ACTION

  • Attract and widen access for newcomers, less experienced organisations and small-scale actors to the
    programme. These partnerships should act as a first step for organisations into cooperation at European level.
  • Support the inclusion of target groups with fewer opportunities.
  • Support active European citizenship and bring the European dimension to the local level.

Detailed Call Description

Small-scale Partnerships are designed to widen access to the programme to small-scale actors and individuals who are hard to reach in the fields of school education, adult education, vocational education and training, youth and sport. With lower grant amounts awarded to organisations, shorter duration and simpler administrative requirements compared to the Cooperation Partnerships, this action aims at reaching out to grassroots organisations, less experienced organisations and newcomers to the Programme, reducing entry barriers to the programme for organisations with smaller organisational capacity. This action will also support flexible formats – mixing activities with transnational and national character although with a European dimension – allowing organisations to have more means to reach out to people with fewer opportunities. Small-scale Partnerships can also contribute to the creation and development of transnational networks and to fostering synergies with, and between, local, regional, national and international policies.

Τhe Small-sсale Partnerships is applied under the Cooperation Partnerships proportionally to
the scope and volume of each project:

  • Increasing quality in the work and practices of the organisations and institutions involved, opening up to
    new actors not naturally included within one sector;
  • Building capacity of organisations to work transnationally and across sectors;
  • Addressing common needs and priorities in the fields of education, training, youth and sport;
  • Enabling transformation and change (at individual, organisational or sectoral level), leading to improvements,
    in proportion to the context of each organisation;
