INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

  • General information

    The Norwegian Financial Mechanism and the European Economic Area Financial Mechanism (i.e. so-called Norway grants and EEA grants) constitute a form of non-refundable foreign aid granted by Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein to new EU members. The funds are connected with Poland’s accession to the European Economic Area (EU + Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway). In return for the financial aid the donor states have access to the European Union internal market (although they are not EU member states). Currently, the second funding period of the Norway and EEA grants is underway (years 2009-2014). The previous funding period related to years 2004-2009.

  • Objectives

    The overall objectives of the EEA and Norway grants are as follows: contributing to the reduction of economic and social disparities in the European Economic Area and strengthening the bilateral relations between the Donor States and the Beneficiary State.

  • Beneficiary States

    The Beneficiary States of the EEA and Norway grants are 16 EU member states - 12 countries which joined the common market in 2004 and 2007 as well as Spain, Portugal, Greece and Croatia.

  • Allocation

    The total contribution in the second funding period of the EEA and Norway grants is EUR 1.798 billion. The allocation to Poland amounts to EUR 578.1 million including the Donor States' grant management budget and the Beneficiary State (Poland) grant management budget.

  • Recipients

    In general, the applicants can be private or public entities, commercial or non-commercial, and non-government organisations established as legal entities in Poland, as well as intergovernmental organisations operating in Poland.

  • Programmes

    Under the Norway grants and the EEA grants the funds are channelled through a dozen or so programmes (areas of support). Within the scope of a given programme it is possible to obtain funds to implement projects similar in terms of subject matter. Among the programmes there are numerous areas of support which were also included in the first funding period of the Norway grants and the EEA grants. First of all, the following should be listed: environmental protection (including renewable energy), protecting cultural heritage, health, scientific research and scholarships. In addition, there are programmes related to the Schengen Area and home affairs, including criminal justice system (imprisonment) and violence prevention. As in case of the first funding period, a specific focus was placed on strengthening civil society. Certain new topics emerged, such as decent work and tripartite dialogue, as well as self-governments' cooperation in the scope of region development. Institutions/organisations specialising in specific areas are in charge of the implementation of each programme, e.g. Ministry of Health manages the health-related programmes. Those institutions play a role of a so-called Programme Operator. Within the framework of some of the programmes the Programme Operators cooperate with certain entities from the Donor States.
