The Council of Ministers yesterday approved the call for grants to NGOs “for the implementation of humanitarian actions” during 2023 for an amount of 15 million euros, an action to be carried out through the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID).
The Presidency of the AECID will issue a resolution on the call for public subsidies in the field of international development cooperation, in accordance with the provisions of the regulatory bases, on a competitive basis.
In accordance with the provisions of the General Law on Subsidies, this call requires the prior authorisation of the Council of Ministers, as the amount of the expenditure exceeds 12 million euros.
The call will be financed from the budget application 12.302.143A.484 of the General State Budget (PGE) for 2023, in which, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there is sufficient credit to meet the corresponding obligations for that year, and may also be financed from the budget application 12.302.143A.496.02, if there is available credit for it.
