The selection of projects is based on the ranking list and the available national/regional budget. The formally binding decisions are taken by the national/regional programme owners. It is important to consider that these decisions can take some time.
Funding is granted by the national/regional funding organisations depending on the chosen funding mode. Excellent communication within the network and an open use of information about national/regional regulations are necessary already at the early stages of preparing the call to ensure coherent decisions. A timely finalisation of the process is necessary to start the transnational projects in an appropriate and simultaneous manner.
