Let`s #getbilateral @ the Active Citizens Fund Romania Matchmaking Seminar

The Romanian Fund Operator for the new Active Citizens Fund is pleased to announce and invite you to the firstMatchmaking Seminarorganized in Bucharest, Romania, on October 9-11, 2019, under the Fund for Bilateral Relations.

The aim of the seminar is to facilitate contact and discussions on opportunities for cooperation and partnership development between representatives of interested parties from Norway, Iceland and Lichtenstein and Romanian NGOs. We look forward to sharing information on the Active Citizens Fund Romania and to provide space to develop ideas that could turn into donor partnership projects and be submitted within the forthcoming calls of the ACF Romania.

The thematic focus envisaged for discussions and cooperation will be in line with the specific areas of support covered by the Active Citizens Fund Romania, namely:

Final agenda shall be defined considering also the topics of interest highlighted by the selected participants.

The working language of the event will be ENGLISH and no translation services will be provided.

Pentru acest eveniment căutăm cel puțin 15 participanți care vin în numele organizațiilor din statele donatoare – Islanda, Lichtenstein și Norvegia și 20 de participanți care provin din ONG-uri românești. Persoanele interesate sunt rugate să completeze formularul de înregistrare online care poate fi accesat de .

The deadline for registration is September 17, 2019and the selected participants will be announced by September 20 at the latest.

Due to the limited number of participants whose travel, accommodation and meals costs can be covered we can invite only one participant per represented organisation. In case of too many registrations, a selection procedure might be necessary to be conducted. Participants will be selected based on their interest shown towards priorities of the Active Citizens Fund Romania as well as their descriptions provided in the registration form. Priority will be given to representatives of organizations that were not previously involved in activities facilitating networking and bilateral relations development through the previous NGO Fund (i.e. mobilities financed through the previous calls under the Fund for Bilateral Relations, workshop organized by the Fund Operator etc.).

Accommodation, meals and coffee breaks will be covered directly by the organizers for the duration of the Seminar. Travel expenses will be covered only as reimbursement after the event. Further information, as well as the location of the event, will be provided for the selected participants, in a confirmation email from the organizers.
