INVESTMENT AREA 2.4:
SMART TOWNS AND VILLAGES
The SEUPB anticipates that a funding call for PEACEPLUS Investment Area (IA) 2.4 Smart Towns and Villages will open in Summer of 2023. In advance of the funding call, a pre-application support workshop was held on 15 March 2023. This provided preliminary guidance to help potential applicants build their project, programme knowledge, and capacity so that they are best placed to make quality applications, with a strong focus on outcomes that meet programme targets and the overarching aim of Peace and Prosperity.
The workshop was recorded and will be available to view within 7 days.
