LEONARDO DA VINCI PROGRAMME

Second phase (2000-2006)

Call for proposals EAC/92/04

‘Awarding of grants for Valorisation Conferences for the Exploitation of Results from Leonardo da Vinci Projects’

Notice of publication of a call for proposals on the Internet

(2005/C 48/10)

1.   Objectives and Description:

The aim of the call for proposals is to support valorisation events (conferences and exhibitions) to promote the exploitation of results from Leonardo da Vinci Projects. The results of projects from other EU programmes linked to vocational education and training may also be proposed for the events.

The action should consist of the following three stages. Support will be given only to proposals fulfilling the requirements of all three stages:

1)

Preparatory stage: Matching of users' needs and selected project results. On the basis of analyses of identified users' needs, products and results from a minimum of 5 different Leonardo da Vinci projects, from at least 3 different countries, should be identified and selected for promotion and exploitation.

2)

Organisation of an event: Organisation of a conference/workshops/exhibition to bring together supply and demand. Interactive exchanges between the project promoters and the users should take place with the aim of facilitating the transfer and exploitation of the project results to meet new users' needs.

3)

Final stage: Follow-up activities. Proposals of follow-up actions facilitating the transfer and developing indicators for measuring the impact of the event.

2.   Eligible Applicants

Submission of grant requests under this call is open in particular to European, national, regional, local and sectoral organisations or companies, including European networks, meeting the eligibility criteria, working in the field of vocational education and training and wishing to organise a valorisation event in the specific areas covered by this call for proposals. Applicants should be legally established for more than 3 years; and must be established in one of the following countries:

The 25 EU Member States, the states of EFTA/EEA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway), or the candidate countries (Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey).

3.   Budget and Project Duration

The budget available for this call is EUR 1 500 000. On the basis of this amount, the Directorate General for Education and Culture envisages supporting between 15/20 projects with a maximum grant of not exceeding EUR 100 000, to a maximum of 75 % of eligible costs. 30 % of the budget must be allocated for financing follow-up activities (Stage 3).

Activities must start between 1 August 2005 and 1 October 2005.

The proposed valorisation events should be completed by April 2006 at the latest, to allow sufficient time for the follow-up activities before the end of the project.

The final report should be delivered by 1 October 2006 at the latest.

The maximum duration of projects is 12 months.
