The global objective of this Call for Proposals is to provide financial assistance to NGOs through small-scale projects and covering administrative costs of small, grassroots NGOs all over Turkey in order for them to establish successful communication and professional links with institutions from EU Member States and candidate countries.

This Call for Proposals has three specific objectives:

• Strengthening contacts and mutual exchange of experience among the civil societies of Turkey, EU counterparts and the Candidate Countries.

• Ensuring a better knowledge and understanding of Republic of Turkey within the European Union including Turkish history and knowledge.

• Ensuring a better knowledge and understanding of the European Union within Republic of Turkey including the values on which it is founded, its functioning and its policies.
