What?

An advisory board composed of experts, representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Culture and Communication, will study the applications.

In addition to the assessment of the candidate’s professional career, particular attention is paid to the quality of the project, the adequacy between the project and the chosen country, the planned work and contacts already established on site.
