PROJECTS FUNDED BY IKI SMALL GRANTS
IKI Small Grants uses two approaches to identify local actors worldwide that are suitable for funding. On the one hand, the programme conducts worldwide calls for proposals to which suitable organisations can apply. Secondly, IKI Small Grants supports national funding institutions, which in turn organise calls for proposals and execute effective projects with local actors. The following projects have been or are being funded by IKI Small Grants.
