Access to public funds is a crucial opportunity for supporting and financing projects and initiatives across various sectors, including businesses, non-profit organizations,
cultural institutions, and local authorities.
To obtain public funding, it is essential not only to identify the right opportunities but also to prepare a well-structured proposal that meets the required criteria.
MTB handles all stages and responsibilities involved in accessing these funds.
Researching Calls and Programs: There are numerous sources of funding, including European, national, regional, and local calls for proposals. Research should include consultations of official websites of institutions, ministries, regional bodies, and European commissions, as well as specialized portals and databases dedicated to funding opportunities.
Analyzing Requirements: Each call for proposals has specific requirements regarding the types of projects eligible for funding, categories of beneficiaries, and eligibility conditions. It is essential to carefully analyze these requirements to ensure that the project aligns with the funding guidelines.
Timelines and Deadlines: Funding opportunities are often subject to strict deadlines that must be adhered to rigorously.
Guideline Analysis: A precise understanding of the call guidelines is crucial to ensure that all requirements are met and that the proposal aligns with the rules and expectations of the funding bodies.
Documentation Development: The funding application requires a series of documents, including detailed project descriptions, budget forecasts, work plans, and team member resumes.
Proposal Writing: The proposal should be written in a precise, clear, and persuasive manner.
Defining Objectives: The project objectives must be clear, measurable, and aligned with the goals of the call for proposals. It is important to describe how the project will address a specific problem or achieve a significant result.
Activity Plan and Timeline: The proposal should include a detailed plan of the activities to be carried out, with deadlines and key milestones. This demonstrates planning and feasibility, showing the funding bodies that the project will be managed effectively.
Budget and Funding: Preparing an accurate and detailed budget is crucial. It should include all anticipated expenses, justify each cost, and demonstrate how the funds will be used efficiently.
Impact and Evaluation: Describing the project’s impact and the methods for evaluating results is essential to convince funders of its relevance and sustainability. It should be clear how the results will be measured and monitored over time.
