Innovative thinking

Are you going to try something new?

Does the idea follow our strategy?

Can the project contribute to to improve living conditions for young people in Bergslagen? Read the strategy here.

Non-discrimination

Have you thought about norm criticism and increased equality? It is an absolute requirement that no one is prevented from influencing the design of the project, participating in its implementation or benefiting from its results due to gender, ethnicity, religion, disability, sexual orientation or age. How can your project help combat discrimination?

Equality

Are the project's working methods and distribution of tasks designed so that women and men have equal opportunities to influence the design of the project, participate in its implementation and benefit from the project's results?

Sustainable change

Will you work to improve the environment and reduce climate impact in Bergslagen in any way? For example, it could be initiatives that reduce fuel consumption when you don't have to travel far. Or activities that encourage cycling and walking instead of using petrol. 

Implementation capacity

Do you have a plan for how you will carry out the project practically? Do you have someone who can provide the money? The money for the check is paid in arrears.

Budget

Have you checked out quotes so you can compare prices and use your money in the smartest way?

Did you answer yes to these questions?

How fun! Now you can fill out the application.

Word file with the questions in the application to have as a draft.

Remember to mention in your application that your purpose is to improve the living conditions of young people!
Which of Leader Bergslagen's six target indicators will be met if your project is prioritized?
Will you carry out the project even if you are not granted financial support from Leader Bergslagen for this?
This question is there to check whether there is even a need for Leader to realize your project idea.
Is the project something new that you haven't done before?
Leader projects must be something you haven't done before in this way.
Have you applied for other support for the same purpose or similar activities?
This question is there to check that the project is not double-funded.
Is the project subject to VAT?
If the applicant is an association that does not conduct VAT-compliant activities - write so.

At the end of the project

When you are finished, you must submit a report of the work carried out, copies of invoices, receipts, proof of payment and preferably photo documentation. We will also have a follow-up meeting to review the outcome of the indicators. The approved sub-project must be implemented and a final report must be submitted in accordance with the timeframe specified in the agreement for support to be paid.
