Belgian Peace Building Grants :
1. In accordance with certain thematic and geographical policy priorities, projects in the field of peace building can be funded. The concept of ‘peace building’, as well as the objectives and scopes within which a project proposal must be situated, are set out in the annex 1 to these guidelines. 2. The funding of such projects constitutes an instrument of the Belgian foreign policy. This instrument is used in combination with the other (financial) instruments available. Double financing of projects is by no means allowed. 3. The projects should preferably have an added value on the ground. Seminars,
conferences, congresses, publications, training etc. will only be funded in exceptional cases, on condition that they reinforce the thematic policy priorities. 4. Particular attention is paid to initiatives that reinforce local capacities and institutions. Moreover, local partners should be consulted from the conceptual phase of the project onwards, and take part as much as possible in the implementation of the project. The diplomatic posts too will be asked to assure a follow up to the projects. 5. Any possible financing will take place only if a detailed project proposal is introduced along with a detailed earmarked budget. B. Competent service 6. Service S0.1 – Policy Planning, Peace Building and Support to Mediation - is the only service competent for receiving and treating project proposals. Its coordinates are: Guidelines update 20160201 Grants in the field of Peace building-guidelines S0.1 – Policy Planning, Peace Building and Support to Mediation FPS Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation Rue des Petits Carmes, 15 B-1000 Brussels Belgium Email : Peacebuilding@diplobel.fed.be 7. All project proposals, whether they are introduced by the organizations, our diplomatic posts, services at the head office or by the Foreign Affairs Policy Unit, are to be sent or transmitted to the Service S0.1 which will function as ‘one-stop shop’. From the reception of the project proposal, the Service S0.1 will be the contact point for the further handling of the project.
C. Submission of project proposals and other documents 8. Each project proposal will be submitted by e-mail and in two printed copies. 9. Project proposals can be submitted at any time but preferably between 1st January and 30th June. Projects submitted at a later date are a priori less likely to be approved in the course of the relevant budget year. 10.Taking into account of the different steps in the procedure, it is recommended to submit a project proposal six months before its planned starting date. This would enable a timely payment. 11. For any project proposal, the soliciting organisation will receive an acknowledgement of receipt, indicating in the first place whether or not the proposal is admissible (cfr. also points 21-22). S0.1 will ensure that, in case the project proposal was not presented directly to S0.1, the entity that has transmitted the proposal (e.g. a diplomatic post, geographical service or policy unit) is kept informed about the evolution of the dossier. D. Admissibility of the requests
12. A project proposal may only be introduced by: International or regional organisations, whether or not partner institutions of multilateral cooperation; Belgian, foreign and international NGO’s and associations, nonprofit making and with a legal status; Universities, higher education and other research institutions. 13. Private persons or commercial companies are not entitled to submit any proposals in their own name, although they can be put in charge of the execution of a project. In
