Complementary Information: We have received a Fonds Maribel Grant for Staff, which was 40 000 € in 2022 and considered an operating grant, however as it probably does not categorize as an EU grant, it is not indicated above. We also receive this Maribel grant this financial year.
All other funding amounts do not exceed 10% of total budget, therefore not explained further in this document. We receive a significant amount of finances as our members' contribution, more precisely the participation fee of multiple hundred people in our annual, international educational event. That is indicated in 14b as member's contribution, the 83K euro amount, and added after receiving the feedback after our first submission. We apologise for missing on including that earlier. In addition to that, but what does not exceed 10% of total budget, we also received 41KEUR from our members in the form of membership fees in 2022. This amount is related to operating costs. As for this current financial year, we do not know yet know the outcome of all grant funding as we are still waiting to hear the outcomes of some applications, hence we are unable to provide full information for this year right now.
