CCP Synergy is aimed at strengthening ties between civil society organisations from Germany and the CCP partner countries. The programme is designed for tandems that are planning on implementing a joint activity, such as public events, fact finding missions, research activities or artistic initiatives. They can either be implemented online or on-site. Thus, this programme encourages an exchange between civil society actors across national borders.
CCP Synergy funding can be used to finance employees’ one-sided or reciprocal short visits between 7 and 30 days. One of the organisations must be located in Germany and the other in one of the partner countries:
Afghanistan, Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belarus, Bhutan, Bolivia, Brasil, Chile, Columbia, Cuba, Egypt, Georgia, Germany, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Libya, Malaysia, Marocco, Mauritania, Mexico, Mongolia, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Palestine Territories, Philippines, Republic of Moldova, Qatar, Russia, Saudi-Arabia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Tunesia, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Yemen.
If possible, both organisations should work in a similar field – thematically or regionally – from one of the following areas:
- Policy and society
- Media and culture
- Human rights and peace
- Sustainable development and climate justice
In addition, in 2024 the following key topics will also be focussed on:
- Circular Economy
- Gender & Diversity
Funded collaborations need to be finalised by 15 November 2024.
CCP Synergy supports both cooperating organisations with a total of 4,500 EUR in total (2,250 EUR for each participating organisation). Funding is available for the following purposes: travel expenses, accommodation, meals, health insurance, expenditure allowance as needed, and other costs related to the collaboration such as visas, etc.
