Training session Working with EuropeAid in Prague

The two-day fruitful training session delivered by the Italian organization punto.sud in cooperation with the Czech Forum for Development Co-operation, FoRS, was held in Prague, 23-24 March 2010. The participants were comprised of 24 Czech civil society organizations involved in the planning and management of EC funded development programs. The training was followed by hands-on support to interested organisations on specific issues pertaining to their Europe-Aid funded projects. The next training session will be held in another new member state (NMS) country in 2010 (see http://www.puntosud.org/helpdesk-europeaid/doku.php/training/sessions_2010).

The training is part of the project “Helpdesk platform and support to New Member States (NMS) Non State Actors/Local Authorities in the Development sector” implemented by punto.sud as lead organization; FoRS (Czech Republic), People in Peril Association (Slovakia), Hungarian Baptist Aid (Hungary) and APEL Service (Romania) as implementing partners; Caritas Poland (Poland) and Support to Life (Turkey) as Associates. The project’s main purpose is to improve the access to information, methods and best practices on EuropeAid-grant contractual obligations of Non State Actors and Local Authorities of the EU NMS.
