Previous calls for projects

Funding for Interreg Europe projects was allocated through calls for project proposals – periods of time during the year when applications could be submitted. Each call had an opening and closing date and outside of these dates it was not possible to apply for funding with a project proposal.

Applications were submitted online through the Interreg Europe online system (iOLF). The system was  available shortly before the call opened, so that applicants could register and start preparing their applications. The ‘Submit application’ button, however, was active only during an open call. 

Specific terms of reference was published for each call (see examples below). They defined specific criteria for each call, for example the maximum amount of funding available, the topics opened for funding and so on.

Interreg Europe held four calls for project proposals: 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 - see details below.

We have already allocated all our funds to projects. There will be no more calls.
