Individual travel grants for civil society organisations from Eastern Partner countries

09/06/2026

The Transatlantic Foundation (TF), in cooperation with the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation programme of the German Marshall Fund of the United States, has launched a dedicated call for proposals for individual travel grants aimed at fostering regional networking, exchange, and cooperation among civil society organisation (CSO) representatives, civic activists and leaders, and informal group representatives from the six Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries.

This initiative complements the ongoing EU-funded programme ‘Enhancing the Resilience of Civil Society in the Eastern Partnership’ (ERICS-EaP) by providing opportunities for CSO representatives, civic activists and leaders, and informal group representatives to actively engage in existing regional networks, forums, and cooperative endeavours.

The BST will award grants of up to €1,500 each to enable CSO representatives, civic activists and leaders, and representatives of informal groups to participate in existing regional networking events, forums, and cooperative initiatives. The grants are intended to support travel expenses.

The call is open to CSO representatives based or active in one of the six EaP countries (exiled CSOs are also eligible).

Please be aware that you need to apply at least one month  before your event participation.

The current call ends on 18 June.

The next call will take place from 15 August to 15 September.
