[Doru-Cristian Coretchi](https://www.winnovart.com/news/author/dccwin) April 24, 2025 The EEA and Norway Grants for the 2021-2028 funding period allocate €3.3 billion to support Europe's green transition, democracy, and social resilience across 15 programme areas. This funding is structured around three overarching priorities: 1. **European Green Transition**: Focusing on environmental protection, renewable energy, and climate change mitigation. 2. **Democracy, Rule of Law, and Human Rights**: Aiming to strengthen democratic institutions, uphold the rule of law, and protect human rights. 3. **Social Inclusion and Resilience**: Enhancing social cohesion and resilience, particularly among vulnerable groups. Additionally, three dedicated funds have been established to address specific challenges: - **Civil Society Fund (€327 million)**: Supports civil society organisations and democratic participation across the Beneficiary States. A portion of the fund is allocated to transnational initiatives, and it is managed by independent Fund Operators. - **Fund for Capacity Building and Cooperation (€65 million):** Facilitates knowledge exchange, programme development, and strategic cooperation between Donor and Beneficiary States. Managed by the Financial Mechanism Office (FMO).  - **Fund for Social Dialogue and Decent Work (€15 million):** Supports social dialogue and fair working conditions in Beneficiary States receiving Norway Grants. It is managed by an independent Fund Operator contracted by the FMO.  Blue Book 2021 - 2028 .15 Programme areas & 3 Funds of the EEA & Norway grants 2021-2028 to support 15 Beneficiary States across Northern, Central and Southern Europe. ![](https://www.winnovart.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Mar-05-2025-09-23-20-3074-PM.png?width=1990&height=1154&name=image-png-Mar-05-2025-09-23-20-3074-PM.png)   Read more [here](https://landing.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-2021-2028-updates) For ongoing updates about the EIC Fund, you can subscribe to our regular updates, [please get in touch with us](https://share.hsforms.com/1dbemDutMS7itxkKQ3pzEkw2cxgb), or follow us on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/winnovart/), [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/winnovart), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/winnovart).    Categories: [2020](https://www.winnovart.com/category/2020/), [EEA&Norway grants](https://www.winnovart.com/category/eeanorway-grants/), [HomePage](https://www.winnovart.com/category/homepage/), [News](https://www.winnovart.com/category/news/), [Winnovart Explainer](https://www.winnovart.com/category/winnovart-explainer/) | Tags: [blue growth croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/blue-growth-croatia/), [business development and innovation croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/business-development-and-innovation-croatia/), [business innovation projects croaitia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/business-innovation-projects-croaitia/), [eeano croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/eeano-croatia/), [funding for Croatian companies](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/funding-for-croatian-companies/), [green industry innovation croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/green-industry-innovation-croatia/), [innovation croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/innovation-croatia/), [innovation norway croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/innovation-norway-croatia/), [winnovart explainer croatia](https://www.winnovart.com/tag/winnovart-explainer-croatia/) | [Permalink](https://www.winnovart.com/winnovart-explainer-eea-norway-grants-for-business-innovation-projects-in-croatia/) [News](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/news), [HomePage](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/homepage), [EEA&Norway grants](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/eeanorway-grants), [2025](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/2025) ![](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/EEA%20Norway%20grants/EEA%20%26%20Norway%20grants%20-%20history%20matters%20-%20March%202025%20EN.png) [![Facebook](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/facebook-icon.png)](https://www.facebook.com/winnovart/) [![Twitter](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/twitter-icon.png)](https://twitter.com/winnovart) [![LinkedIn](https://www.winnovart.com/hubfs/social-media-icons/linkedin-icon.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/winnovart) [Winnovart Surveys](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/surveys) [Subscribe to Winnovart's Newsletter](https://share.hsforms.com/16rADODCGRgKIED9KhD-HBA2cxgb) Check your funding readiness [Service options – Winnovart](https://www.winnovart.com/funding-highlights/eeanorway-grants/eeanorway-grants-news/eeanorway-bilateral-dimension/) [Contact us! \>\>](https://www.winnovart.com/contacts/) ### ARCHIVE [News & Updates 2021](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2021) [News & Updates 2020](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2020) [News & Updates 2019](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2019) [News & Updates 2018](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2018) [News & Updates 2017](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2017) [News & Updates 2016](https://www.winnovart.com/news/archive/2016) [Go to Winnovart Surveys for fundraising intelligence](https://www.winnovart.com/news/tag/surveys) Copyright © 2010 - 2026 Winnovart [Disclaimer](https://www.winnovart.com/about-us/disclaimer)  |  [Privacy Policy](https://www.winnovart.com/privacy-policy2018/) [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/winnovart/) [Follow us on Twitter](https://twitter.com/winnovart) [Follow us on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/winnovart/)
