They do this by having lower grant amounts awarded to organisations simpler administrative requirements flexible formats – mixing transnational and national activities – to allow smaller organisations to reach people with fewer opportunities Small-scale Partnerships can contribute to creating and developing transnational networks and linking up local, regional, national and international policies. They also support active European citizenship and bring the European dimension to local levels. Any participating organisation established in a Programme Country can apply for a Small-scale Partnership. This organisation applies on behalf of all participating organisations involved in the project.

Organisations carrying out activities in other fields (e.g. local, regional and national authorities, recognition and validation centres, chambers of commerce, trade organisations, guidance centres, cultural and sport organisations) can also take part. Depending on the priority and the objectives addressed by the project, Small-scale Partnerships should involve the most appropriate and diverse range of partners in order to benefit from their different experiences, profiles and specific expertise.
