Further advancement of Bosnia and Herzegovina towards Euro-Atlantic integration provides more opportunities to obtain grants from the EU for the purpose of developing an organization / local community / canton / private organization / NGO, foundation, etc. Thereby, key issues are the possibilities of an individual organization to obtain EU grants, key elements of a successful project proposal, planning of activities and finances and many other issues.
The Association “Triglav” and also the Union “Europe now” have recognized the need of attending such seminars and getting familiar with something that is new for us and that is the way of obtaining grants from EU funds. Therefore, a member of the Association “Triglav” who is also the coordinator of Eurourad attended the seminar. The lecturer was MA Ivica Ilić, consultant from the RR&Co. d.o.o. Slovenia. The objective of the seminar was to get the attendees familiar with the methodology of preparing a successful project proposal, preparing individual parts of a project application, as well as presenting the possibilities of obtaining grants. The attendees have learned about the programmes through which the EU provides grants to B-H and what can be funded by grants. In a joint work they learned about the necessary steps for the preparation of a good project proposal.
