A simplified call for small grants
This is a highly simplified call for small projects (up to NOK 200,000) with a wide pool of potential applicants: organisations, institutions, private companies, trade unions, cultural actors, senior universities, municipalities, libraries, and more. The call is intended to increase knowledge about Ukraine in Norway and to make Norwegian stakeholders better prepared to cooperate with Ukrainian partners.
