Applicants are encouraged to present comprehensive and sustainable project plans that anticipate challenges and propose realistic solutions. They must be prepared to submit necessary documentation, including a detailed project plan, authorization resolutions, and supporting materials such as letters of support or partnership confirmations. Once a project reaches completion, a thorough accountability process involving financial proofs and performance outcomes ensures transparency and accountability.
