A training session on preparing for the evaluation of project applications for the Small Projects Fund was held in Ternopil

A two-day training session took place on 10–11 June, focusing on the organisation and conduct of the evaluation of project applications under the CrossEco call for proposals of the Interreg NEXT Poland – Ukraine Programme 2021–2027.

During the training, the Small Projects Fund team working on the ‘Environment’ priority area focused on formal and qualitative assessment procedures, project selection criteria, the use of evaluation tools, and issues relating to ensuring the transparency, impartiality and confidentiality of the entire process.

Particular attention was paid to practical exercises, working with assessment forms, interaction with experts, and decision-making processes.

The training session was led by Gabriela Makovei, an independent international expert. Together with her team, she went through each stage of the evaluation process in detail and provided expert advice on how to get the competitive selection process off to a successful start.

Our team continues to actively prepare for the next stages of the CrossEco Small Projects Fund competition, with a view to ensuring a high-quality, transparent and impartial selection of projects in accordance with the procedures and standards of the Small Projects Fund under the Interreg NEXT Poland – Ukraine Programme 2021–2027.
