Can actors from EU Member States (firms, associations, non-state organisations) participate to your activities in Western Africa?
Absolutely! Not only they can be active in our projects but we constantly encourage them to do so and their implication is given a warm welcome! In terms of the Cotonu Agreement products and services coming both from EU and ACP area are given an equal treatment in regards with funding under the EFD. Today, we are trying to involve even more European (and non-European as well) stakeholders in our development projects in Western Africa. We have a real need for actors specialized in construction and design works in our area, for example. When it comes to funding opportunities, non-state and non-governmental actors can benefit from financial support in the framework of geographical aid, as well as under thematic programmes. If you were to give a piece of advice to actors willing to get involved in development projects in Western Africa, what would it be? It is absolutely capital to follow the general information and notices about the calls for projects and proposals launched by the EuropeA
