SIRCLES project is launching a call for sub-grants with the objective of supporting new or existing companies in Tunisia, Jordan, Palestine and Lebanon following a circular economy business model in the field of biowaste management.
All proposed projects must therefore contribute to increase green employment opportunities, especially for vulnerable social groups/groups at risk of social exclusion (i.e., NEET and women) and consequently create green jobs by involving the most vulnerable sectors of the population and supporting environmental sustainability.
The sub-grants will take the form of a reimbursement of costs and will be delivered in 3 instalments (50% pre-financing /30% intermediate payment /20% balance payment). Any grant requested under this call for proposals must fall between EUR 10.000,00 and EUR 35.000,00. Selected applicants (subgrantees) will be required a 5% (for new business) or 10% (for existing business) cash contribution of the project budget specifically and directly related to the implementation of the project.
