The European Union will donate EUR7 million to the DR in the next four years. This will make RD$176.9 million available in funds to be distributed through the Civil Society Institutional Development Fund (FODESIN) and will go to finance 34 projects. The Dominican government is contributing the equivalent of EUR1 million to the fund. This is the first set of funds given by FODESIN to the DR and Onofre Rojas, from the European National Authorizing Office (ONFED) said that it is a privilege for the DR, as it is the only country from the African, Caribbean, Pacific (ACP) block of nations to receive these funds. The deadline for proposals from civil society organizations interested in applying for the funds is 16 April.
