Project Partnership | The minimum requirement for projects is to have partners from at least two of the Member States. Therefore, in the case of involving partners from the Åland islands, there must be at least one partner from Estonia, Latvia or Sweden in the project. Projects between only Åland islands and mainland Finland are not possible. The size of the partnership should be based on the relevance of each partner for the project. The best size of the partnership should be considered for each project individually. Experience shows that projects with a large partnership are more difficult to manage. Being a partner always involves administrative tasks and costs even for the smallest partner organisation. Therefore, the partnership should be limited to 10. If there are exceptional reasons to have more partners, this should be clearly justified. There is no demand to have partners from all countries. Bilateral projects and projects with partners from more (or all) countries are assessed equally. The eligibility of partners has been defined according to their legal status and the location of the partner. The programme will accept public authorities (national, regional and local) as well as bodies governed by public law and bodies governed by private law. Private companies and organisations with their legal address outside the programme area are excluded from being lead partners. The key characteristics of project partners are that they have a budget and that they have an active role in the project implementation. All project partners should take an active part in the project preparation, implementation of thematic, as well as information and communication, project management activities. Each project has a responsibility to implement its own activities (as defined in the project plan) and to manage its budget. |
