Other services
With a project grant, organisations can receive financial support for innovative, sustainable or social projects. Project grants are provided by, among others, governments, foundations and European institutions, helping organisations achieve their ambitions.
An institutional grant is a grant awarded to support the ongoing activities of an organisation, often foundations and associations. Unlike a project grant, which is intended for a specific project or initiative, an institutional grant contributes to the organisation as a whole, enabling it to achieve its objectives over a longer period of time.
Municipal and provincial grants support organisations, associations and institutions in projects that contribute to regional, social or economic development. These grants are intended to stimulate initiatives that align with the objectives of a municipality or province, such as sustainability, liveability, innovation, culture, sports and social development.
