Applications to access the contribution can be submitted from 23 November 2020 in the seven windows indicated in the same Appendix 1.

All windows will close on November 27th, unless the financial allocations assigned to the individual windows are previously exhausted.

Applications for contributions must be received exclusively electronically, with digital signature, through Online tenders in the indicated opening windows and all requirements will be subject to self-certification.
