Acted proposes to distribute eight mini-grants up to 3,830 EUR each, to encourage citizen environmental-friendly initiatives in emergency contexts. These mini-grants will be distributed to volunteers group or local CSOs in eight identified hromadas in Kharkivska and Zaporizka Oblast : Chkalovskaya, Shevchenkisvka, Kunievska, Savynska and Malynivska in Kharkivska Oblast, and Novomykolaivska, Komyshuvaska and Ternuvatska in Zaporizka Oblast. One grant will be distributed per hromada. A selection committee of environmental specialists and programme team will select the project thanks to a scoring system, based on different criteria (impact, relevancy, experience, etc). These mini-grants can be allocated to specific goods/services that will be used for community recovery activities with a focus on environmental aspects.
