Grant recipients will also receive non-financial support in the form of expert mentoring and advisory services to improve business operations and sustainability. Eligible participants are legal entities and individuals with headquarters or residence in Vojvodina. 

“Through this call, we aim to encourage the development of local initiatives that create lasting change in the community. We believe that through joint action and innovation, we can contribute to a more sustainable and inclusive development in Vojvodina,” say representatives of Sidro Foundation. 

The call is open from November 13 to December 12, 2025, until 3:00 PM.
