EU for Municipalities Grant Scheme (EU4M)

EU for Municipalities is a new project funded by the European Union. It aims at fostering municipalities’ development potential and improving the socio-economic and environmental conditions of local communities in Albania via a grant scheme for Albanian municipalities and a targeted technical assistance component. As a result, the EU4M investment grants will tackle the fields of local public infrastructure and services, local economic development, innovation, job creation, environmental protection and youth empowerment.

The project will support municipalities in implementing their strategic development objectives and strategic development plans and strengthen municipal EU funding absorption capacities. 

The project will address the main problems affecting the quality of life and economic prospects of the local communities by aligning them with European standards.
