For this Call for Proposals, there is a two-step application process.

After reading the Guidelines for the Calls for Proposals and the FAQs section, if you are eligible and interested in applying, you are encouraged to submit a Concept Note.

This will be checked by ICMPD (for Administrative & Eligibility compliance) and subsequently assessed by DG HOME in line with the criteria indicated in the new MPF Guidelines.

In case of a positive assessment, you will be invited to submit a Full Application.

What happens once your Full Application is received?

  • An Administrative & Eligibility Check will be carried out by ICMPD
  • A Consultation will be undertaken with (a) the MPF Steering Committee, (b) EU Member States Focal Points and (c) relevant EU Delegation(s) in partner countries involved in the proposed activities. (This process is aimed to verify complementarity with other projects in the same country(ies) or covering the same thematic areas, and in order to avoid duplications and overlapping.)
  • Finally, a Grant Evaluation Committee, composed of representatives of EU services (DG HOME, DG INTPA, DG ENEST, DG MENA and EEAS) will assess your application, in line with the criteria indicated in the new MPF Guidelines and also taking into account the results of the Consultation process.
