Participation, and hence the chances of success, depends heavily on the themes and objectives of the call for proposals. Some calls can be very specific and targeted leading to a lower interest to participate and therefore less competition.

The average success rate of (see the chart) is quite high. However, most calls are open to a restricted audience only, increasing the chance of receiving a grant for those organisations that qualify for these calls.

Expected impact:
The RISE scheme promotes international and inter-sector collaboration through research and innovation staff exchanges, and sharing of knowledge and ideas from research to market (and
vice-versa).
The scheme fosters a shared culture of research and innovation that welcomes and rewards creativity and entrepreneurship and helps to turn creative ideas into innovative products, services or processes.

Deadline: 02.04.2019

This handbook on “Writing to grab attention” aims to help EU-funded projects understand the difference between good and bad writing, using real examples we have come across in our work for the European Neighbourhood Info Centre. The names of projects used in most of the examples have been changed. We also share with the reader some useful tips we are using as journalists and communications experts. The handbook focuses on print material, for practical purposes.
