From November 22-23, in Zlatibor, ISC/CSAI organized an advanced level MAS training on project proposal writing for 14 CSO representatives from Tutin, Sjenica, Prijepolje, Nova Varos, Sabac, Loznica, Uzice, Valjevo and Bajina Basta. The MAS training was conducted by Zdenka Kovacevic , ISC’s Team of Advocacy Resource Persons (ARP) consultant and civic leader from Pozega. Participants improved their knowledge about the rules and principles of EU calls for proposals and analyzed requests for applications currently open by US donors. Sabac- based youth organization Svetlost who actively participated in basic MAS successfully managed to raise funds from their local government, using skills learned at ISC’s trainings, while Aleksandar Prica from LGBT organization Duga received preliminary approval from Ministry of Health for the project designed in accordance with tips and recommendations highlighted by ISC CSAI ARP consultants during the initial MAS on project proposal writing.
