The development policy commitment of non-profit initiatives, associations and foundations is diverse: They are active both in foreign work and in development policy education work in Germany and are committed to global justice. However, the financial resources are often not sufficient to implement projects.

There is often a lack of information about where and how funding can be obtained. The funding providers, in turn, want to be convinced that the applicants are able to implement their projects well.

Content
The aim of the event is to convey the basic requirements for successfully applying for funding, to get to know funding institutions and programs, and to gain an insight into the broad funding landscape. We will address the following questions, among others:

What requirements does my organization have to meet to apply for funding?
What is a project and what does project planning and conception look like?
What funding sources are there and what can funds be applied for?
A special focus is on the funding programs at the federal and state levels.

target audience
The seminar is aimed at people from organizations committed to development policy, particularly from North Rhine-Westphalia, who have little or no experience with funding programs and their application.

Participation, accommodation and meals are free of charge.
Since the program builds on each other, we expect participation on both days.
The number of participants is limited to a maximum of 30 people.
