The call for applications for the Addiction Services component of the PEACEPLUS Programme opened on 14 March 2024 and closed on 23 May 2024. Applications received under that call are currently under assessment and I am therefore not in a position to provide any information on the status of individual applications.

Once an application has been received the Joint Secretariat, the Special EU Programme Body (SEUPB), carries out the assessment of the project leading to the tabling of recommendations for decision to the Steering Committee.

The Steering Committee makes the final decision on all funding applications and, according to the SEUPB’s indicative timetable, the Steering Committee meeting for the Addiction Services call is scheduled to take place in Q4, 2024.

In the case of approval, the Lead Partner will be informed by a Steering Committee Outcome letter. Applicants whose projects are rejected will also be officially notified by the Joint Secretariat, stating the reasons for the decision.

Detailed information on the assessment, and selection, process can be found in the Programme Manual. The latest version can be found on the PEACEPLUS Portal at: peaceplussupport.seupb.eu
