Preparing a DG ECHO Action: the Single Form
Course Description
The course starts with an overview of the financing decisions process and the HIPs, to understand ECHO priorities and proposals’ assessment modalities. After that, it analyses the Single Form format (the partners’ tool to access ECHO funds), making specific emphasis on the main sections of the form (needs and beneficiaries, logframe, resources, quality controls). A specific technical session is dedicated to the eTools and the workflow between the offline application and the online exchange system APPEL. Through the use of case studies and the analysis of best practices, participants will acquire familiarity with the specificities of each section, avoiding unnecessary duplication of information when presenting their proposals.
Specific Objective
To improve the participants’ knowledge and skills in designing an Action in the framework of the ECHO FPA and in making best use of the Single Form format.
Learning Objectives
At the end of the course you will be able to:
- recall the Single Form and understand the logic behind its sections;
- know what type of information has to be included in the different sections of the Single Form;
- be acquainted with the offline Single Form and with the procedure to upload it in APPEL;
- find the relevant information and supporting tools for the understanding and application of the FPA 2014 in proposal design.
