This grant opportunity seeks partners to operate EUROPE DIRECT centres in Poland from 2026 to 2030. EUROPE DIRECT centres are the EU’s local communication hubs, tasked with informing citizens about EU policies, gathering and relaying citizen feedback, supporting civic education, and fostering dialogue on the EU’s impact at the local level. Selected partners will sign a framework partnership agreement with the European Commission Representation in Poland and, upon annual approval of a communication plan, receive a yearly lump sum grant to support their activities. The centres are expected to maintain a strong presence in their region, conduct outreach and educational events, and collaborate with other EU and local networks.
