The official call for projects now describes two distinct streams: Stream A for social cohesion projects and Stream B for territory transformation projects, with examples and objectives specific to each stream. It also publishes the evaluation criteria for both streams, including local need, mobilization, realism and quality, feasibility, and durability or long-term impact depending on the stream. The application package is also clarified: applicants are asked to prepare a preliminary budget and schedule, and a presentation document is optional but recommended before submitting online.
