Deadline for the
submission of bids for "General Support" for the second semester of 1998
The purpose of the "General
Support funds" is to support any activity related to EURO that cannot be
covered by other instruments of EURO.
Priority will always be
given to :
bids that give special consideration
to the need of students (e.g. organiser of an event related to EURO willing
to subsidise the participation of students),
bids that give special consideration
to the need of organisers of OR events in Central and Eastern Europe,
bids that emanate form a member
society of EURO or organisers of EURO sponsored events or organisers of
events sponsored by a member society of EURO.
The bids are kept informal.
They should however always contain a description of the project and a budget.
They should mention the support that has been obtained or sollicited from
other sources.
Although bids emanating
from individuals (e.g. students willing to attend a Conference closely
related to EURO) are, in principal, acceptable they will be given a very
low priority. They are approved only in exceptional cases.
Organisers of events receiving
General Support funds from EURO are required :
to publicise the support of
EURO in the documents of the Conference,
to produce a report on the use
of the funds no later than 3 months after the event,
to accompany their report by
all original receipts.
Bids for "EURO General Support
funds" are examined twice a year on a competitive basis. For 1998 the budget
allocated to this instrument is CHF 10'000. We plan to spend half of this
money for the second semester of 1998 (bids are not restricted to projects
taking place during this period).
For the second semester
of 1998, bids should be sent to Denis Bouyssou, the Secretary of EURO before
May 31, 1998.
