Lately the Erasmus+ programme has opened up to me. I have gained nice contacts that work with the programme regularly and through them of course I am becoming aware of the large dedicated community working with this funding scheme. So, I decided to open up The Grant for this area and start giving the stakeholders a voice.

Given the nature of Erasmus+, funding education in all aspects, you also have a lot of NGOs, non-profit organisations and generally organisations with few resources. And many of them are power houses of energy and dedication to the subject they are working with. They wear their hearts outside their shirts. But how do you manage to build and run an NGO that more or less only runs on EU funding?

My curiousity was awaken by Daiana Huber, Chief Operations Officer @ CPIP – Center for promotion of life-long learning. Her presence on LinkedIn gave me a hunch that she would have something to share. And she didn’t disappoint me. Or you for that sake. CPIP living out of EU funding and in particular Erasmus+ funding. This means that they are submitting proposals almost at an industrial scale. So, I was interested in opening up her world and let her share with all of you out there in the same boat how they are successfully doing this and sharing insights on do’s and don’t’s. Great content.
