The applicant and the project partners all work with adult people in different countries and strongly perceive that people in municipalities, regional administrations and other public bodies (being it professionals, elected representatives or employees) don’t pay sufficient attention to these opportunities. There is sufficient knowledge about the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF), which are promoted by national bodies, but there is significant lack of knowledge about other opportunities, especially Financial Instruments financed Directly by the European Commission or its Agencies and providing money for international cooperation projects. The aim of the TICTAC project is to raise awareness about the European programmes and tools among people working in the municipalities and regional administrations (clercks, professionals and elected representatives) and in other public institutions (such as the personnel from schools, universities, agencies chambers, social centres, orphanages ). Therefore the objective of TICTAC is also to raise interest of adult people in the solution of problems related to local community. We believe that by raising awareness and competences of adult workers there is a wide perspective of influencing public institutions performance in this area.TICTAC project focuses on all kinds of financial instruments suitable for municipalities, regional administrations and other public institutions apart from the national operational programmes financed by the ESIF.The project's target groups are: adult people working in municipalities, regional administrations and public institutions who are losing opportunities of participating to European initiatives.Two Intellectual Outputs will be developed: TICTAC Guide and TICTAC e-learning. Both Intellectual Outputs will be available in 7 languages: English, Czech, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, Hungarian and Swedish. There are seven partners involved in the project: Evropska rozvojova agentura, s.r.o. (Czech Republic), Stenungsunds kommun sektor utbildning (Sweeden), FIN PROJECT (Italy), ONECO CONSULTING SL (Spain), MACDAC ENGINEERING CONSULTANCY BUREAU LTD - MECB (Malta), Municipality of Alba Iulia (Romania) and DIOSD VAROS ONKORMANYZAT (Hungary). We expect that the TICTAC project will provide significant beneficial impacts for people working in municipalities, regional administrations and other public institutions, in order to contribute to more effective and integrated development of European towns and regions, by enriching their knowledge about funding opportunities through an innovative educational program.
