As a basis
for a well-functioning cross-border cooperation, it is important that citizens
and organizations in the programme area get to know each other and regularly contact
each other.

The Small
Project Fund (SPF) People-to-People euregio rhine meuse-north offers financial support from the Interreg
programme for smaller projects and mini-projects. The projects directly affect
the inhabitants of the programme area. The focus is on German and Dutch citizens,
associations and organizations in the border region who want to get to know
partners across the border and thereby build mutual trust.

With the SPF
People-to-People, Europe becomes visible and tangible for everyone in the
region and European values are conveyed through citizen-oriented, concrete
cooperation.

A flat-rate
grant of 750 euros can be used to support exchanges or events. Support of up to
€25,000 is possible for more extensive cooperation. The administrative burden
for the final beneficiaries is low due to the (exclusive) use of the simplified
cost options.

The Ems
Dollart Region, the EUREGIO, the Euregio Rhine-Waal and the euregio
rhein-maas-nord are lead partners of four SPFs each in the fields of health,
education, governance and people-to-people. Uniform decision-making criteria,
regular meetings, joint promotional activities and a unified front office for
all 16 funds ensure that the selected projects contribute equally to achieving
the objectives of the Interreg Germany-Nederland Operational Programme.

As a programme
instrument, the SPFs are accompanied by a monitoring structure consisting of
the Interreg partners or a delegation of the latter.
