Expression of interest

Find everything you need to know to submit an expression of interest.

Main content

Submitting an expression of interest (EoI)  is the first step in our two-step application procedure for regular projects. The EoI allows you to present your idea to our Monitoring Committee with limited effort.

If your EoI is approved, you can move on to the second stage and prepare a more comprehensive, full application in confidence that it stands a fair chance of approval.

On this page, you will find guidance designed to help you develop and submit an expression of interest.
