The first call for horizontal projects on the strategic objectives of Priority Axes 1, 2 and 3 of the Interreg MED Programme 2014-2020 is open till noon of Monday, 11 January 2016 (pre-application phase deadline).
The scope of horizontal projects is to promote common thematic features of modular projects under each of the above Priority Axes of the Interreg MED Programme 2014-2020 and shall highlight such project results for further dissemination, investment and use (capitalisation and transfer).
Public bodies and public equivalent bodies, private institutions, and/or international organisations acting under the national law of EU MED Member States are eligible to participate, as long as their participation shall not lead to conflicts of interest with the modular project partners within the same axis and/or strategic objective.

Project proposals must focus on only one strategic objective of one of the above Priority Axes. Applicants must possess skills in community building, communication, work coordination and management, capitalisation of results, thematic lobbying and networking at European level.
