The contests are aimed at supporting projects designed for monitoring activities of local governments, improving their transparency and accountability, as well as engaging youth in searching for innovative means for preventing and fighting corruption.

The winners will be able to receive up to €7,500 for implementing projects in the field of countering corruption, anti-corruption education and improving transparency of local governments in Zhytomyr, Nikopol, and Chervonohrad.

Small Grants Contests are part of the “Integrity Cities” project implemented by EUACI in cooperation with local authorities in five Ukrainian cities — Zhytomyr, Mariupol, Nikopol, Chervonohrad, and Chernivtsi.

The project aims to increase the transparency of local authorities and government-led organizations by introducing innovative means to control their work and broader engagement of local communities in the decision-making process.

The initiatives within the project include establishing an Open Budget system for cities and local schools, launching of online reception and a number of others.
