Open Estonia Foundation Approved as NGO Foundation Intermediary

Open Estonia Foundation was appointed as the national intermediary in Estonia to administer support from the European Economic Area (EEA) Grants donor states Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway to Estonian civil society groups.

The call for proposals to find an intermediary for the NGO Foundation was organized by the Estonian Ministry of Finance. The NGO Foundation is part of Norwegian and EEA financial mechanisms through which 36.5 million Estonian kroons will be made available for the development of Estonian civil society.

The aim of the Norwegian and EEA financial mechanisms is to reduce social and economic disparities in the EEA, and to enable all EEA countries to participate fully in the Internal Market.

As the next step in the implementation, donor states need to approve Open Estonia Foundation as the intermediary.
