FAQs

Project teams had the opportunity to state on the application whether they would need any advice and, if so, what kind. In addition, the jury sometimes makes a recommendation for specialist support. After this, the project leadership at “ici. here together.” arranges specialist support if possible. 

It is not possible to request advice after this point. 

If you have not had any, or in your view, enough, specialist support – financed by “ici. here together.” – you can look for suitable services offered by our partners.

Many projects requested networking opportunities. We recommend contacting the other project teams directly and entering into dialogue with them.

“ici. here together.” is one of the few funding programmes to offer both money and professional advice. This type of specialist support is carefully reviewed and arranged.
