The project proposal provides for the implementation of a series of activities aimed at building on the achievements of the DIC since its establishment and ensuring the effective functioning of the Centre in the period 2019-2021. The project objective is fully in line with the objectives of the procedure and priority axis 4 of the DDAC. Providing the necessary funds for the functioning of the CIC will create optimal working conditions and flexibility for the implementation of the project activities. It is envisaged to provide up-to-date, free and expert information on the possibilities for funding from ESIF funds in the office of the AEC, by telephone, e-mail and on the spot during information events in the municipalities of Stara Zagora in accordance with the needs of potential beneficiaries. Information events for beneficiaries, media meetings, seminars and other public events will achieve better public awareness and visibility of EU policies, the Partnership Agreement, the role of ESIF for local and regional development, and project funding opportunities. The activities of the CIU will contribute to increasing the transparency of the application and project management process. The Centre will also participate in the implementation of all common initiatives of the network of EICs. A set of materials will be prepared for participants in public events. Brochures with information on the IGWP under OP and leaflets with information on up-to-date procedures of interest to a wide range of potential beneficiaries will be produced and distributed. With the continuation of the project, the EIC will remain at the forefront of providing up-to-date and accurate information on European funding opportunities.
