Call for Projects South 2020

Are you a recognised Belgian civil society organisation or a non-profit organisation and do you want to launch a sustainable and inclusive economic development project in a developing country?

Brussels International and hub.brussels are launching a new Call for Projects, on the initiative of State Secretary for Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade Pascal Smet.

Context

The Brussels-Capital Region (BCR) wants to contribute to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations and more specifically to the global eradication of poverty through sustainable and inclusive economic development.

Goal

This Call for Projects was created to support sustainable and inclusive economic development projects in developing countries.

  • These projects must be implemented in an urban or semi-urban context.
  • The projects must also be developed in one of the BCR’s four partner regions (see guidelines): Greater Chennai Corporation, City-Province of Kinshasa, Paramaribo District, the Region of Rabat-Salé-Kénitra.

Who is eligible?

The Call for Projects is open to recognised civil society organisations as well as other Belgian non-profit organisations (ASBL/VZW). In the latter case, this includes organisations actively engaged in the field of international solidarity as well as associations focusing on economic development.

With this Call for Projects, the Brussels-Capital Region aims to support as many projects as possible, with subsidies in the range of €10,000 to €125,000 (see guidelines for more details).
