Description
Eligibility in the context of a project proposal basically means if you or your organization meet their necessary criteria to receive the grant. This refers to form of organization, legal status, country of registration and age of organization amongst others. Some calls for applications only apply for organizations that already have a couple of years of experience, others only to NGOs or charities, some are open for individuals.
It is very simple – if you write a proposal for an opportunity that you are not eligible for, you are wasting time. Not only your own time, but the time of the donor as well. Many NGOs seem to think that they can sway a donor with a good project, but if you are not eligible, the evaluation committee will not even take a look at your proposal. Make sure you know from the beginning if you can apply or not, and when not, move on.
