Question 3

What do calls for children and families give points for?

Accepted Answer

Each one has its own scoring scale, but the technical quality of the project, the organisation's experience in children and families, co-funding, the number of beneficiaries and the gender perspective come up again and again. For every call read, the criteria have been pulled out with their exact weight, so you know what scores before you start writing.

Question 4

How do I find the call for children and families that fits my project?

Accepted Answer

By filtering by field of work and territory in Search, or by letting the system do it: with your organisation's profile and a narrative of your project, it is scored against each call's criteria the way the committee would, and out comes a list ordered by fit.

Question 5

Can I apply for several grants for children and families for the same project?

Accepted Answer

Generally yes, as long as the total received does not exceed the cost of the project and none of the calls expressly forbids it. It has to be declared in each application. Each call's record says whether it is compatible with other funding.
