The FAO-EU FLEGT Programme is now accepting concept notes from government institutions, civil society, indigenous and tribal peoples, and private sector organizations in countries engaged in Voluntary Partnership Agreements (VPAs) with the European Union. Grants up to USD 110 000 are available through the Programme to support ongoing VPA processes in targeted countries.
The selection of proposals will be done in two phases. First, all eligible applicants are invited to submit concept notes before the 15th of September 2017; and second, only shortlisted applicants will be asked to submit full project proposals.
