Conditions36

Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Application restriction

Application restriction
Environmental contest prizes: continuous intake from 2 March 2026 until funds are exhausted.
Application restriction
An applicant may file at most three applications for programme activities types IV.1–5; type IV.6 ecological-contest prize applications do not count toward the limit.
Application restriction
Eligible expenses incurred 1 January through 30 November 2026 for activity types IV.1–IV.5; the activity must not be complete on the application date.

Cost period is separate from intake and implementation deadlines.

Application restriction
Eligible expenses incurred 1 March through 10 December 2026 for activity type IV.6; the activity must not be complete on the application date.

Distinct from IV.1–IV.5 eligibility dates and the intake window.

Application restriction
Official editable workbook application covers activity types IV.1–5 and asks applicant identity, legal form, project description, education topic, goals, direct/indirect activities, target groups, promotion and applicant’s substantive/methodological capacity.
Application restriction
Separate DOCX application is provided for ecological contest prize support, distinct from the IV.1–5 activity workbook.
Application restriction
Green schools field activity applications closed 20 March 2026; the 2026 activity form cannot be treated as currently open.
Application restriction
Field activities under IV.3 and regional ecological-center activities under IV.5 are mutually exclusive per applicant.
Application restriction
A dedicated workbook is linked for post-award payment request for prize purchase; it is contract/payment administration, not an additional application requirement before award.
Eligible geography
Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodeship residents are target audience and covered education must address inhabitants of the voivodeship.
Eligible project scope
Education-oriented events, seminars, symposia or conferences on environmental protection, energy transition, water/sewage, waste, climate adaptation or sustainable development, targeted to adults; can be in-person, hybrid or online and include research/good-practice presentations and related materials.
Eligible project scope
Purchase of tangible prizes for educational environmental contests connected to an event or other environmental education activity organised by the applicant.

Prize support is subject to the IV.6 rules, including the explicit ban on double financing prize-purchase costs from public funds.

Beneficiaries reached, minimumRegional ecological education centers, branch IV.5; programme definition and activity eligibility
1,000 beneficiaries per year

This activity branch intake ended 20 March 2026; the 1000 participants are beneficiaries, not employees or required hires.

Beneficiaries reached, minimumContest funded under the ecological prizes track
30 participants per contest

Beneficiary/participant reach, not employment headcount; number of prizes may not exceed contest participant count.

People reached by direct education, minimumField-activity branch IV.3; beneficiary reach, not staffing
400 people per year

This branch intake ended 10 April 2026 and is not one of the continuous open activity types; do not treat 400 as a current condition of event/content/prize applications.

People reached by direct education, minimumIV.3 field-activity minimum participants per activity, separate from the IV.3 beneficiary branch requiring teaching at least 400 participants per year.
400 participants in one IV.3 activity

Fixed IV.3 track and the activity-level threshold appears in §IV.3(b); its 2026 application window ended 10 April 2026. This is participant reach, never staffing/headcount.

People reached by direct education, minimumIV.5 one-day field-education activity; minimum participants in the activity, distinct from the 1,000-participants-per-year definition of a regional education centre.
1,000 participants in one IV.5 activity

The bound 2026 regulation states this threshold for IV.5. That track is a fixed-date activity whose published application window is closed in this source version; recording its operative source threshold does not represent it as currently open. This is activity reach, never staff headcount.

Other condition
For educational-content creation (IV.2), the undertaking may not start before application submission unless the call regulation provides otherwise. This is a separate start condition from cost eligibility and the general unfinished-project gate.

Applies to IV.2 educational-content undertakings, subject only to an exception stated in the call regulation.

Other condition
Complete applications for types IV.1, IV.2 and IV.6 are considered in order received or until the relevant allocation is exhausted. This is the operative consideration route for the three continuous intake tracks.

Only IV.1, IV.2 and IV.6; distinguish these continuous/open routes from contest ranking for IV.3–5. This does not establish live acceptance or remaining allocation.

Other condition
Current general rules require award by civil-law agreement after positive consideration; assistance amounts and payment dates depend on the Fund’s financial capacity.
Other condition
General rules state support may cover project costs incurred after application, subject to the specified exceptions; they also bar funding for a project already completed at application.
Other condition
General formal requirements in §5(1)(2)–(6) do not apply to applications for funding prizes in ecological-themed contests.
Other condition
For targeted priority programmes, programme and call regulation govern financial terms; general rules apply where programme/regulation leave matters unregulated.
Other condition
Projects outside Kujawsko-Pomorskie are excluded, except education delivered to residents of that voivodeship using the programme beneficiary’s facilities located in another voivodeship.

The exception depends on both the audience (Kujawsko-Pomorskie residents) and use of the programme beneficiary’s own facility outside the region; this does not make all out-of-region activity eligible.

Other condition
Supported activities under types IV.1–5 must be executed by 30 Nov 2026; prize-purchase type IV.6 by 10 Dec 2026.
Other condition
As of this review date, the regulation’s continuous windows apply to types IV.1, IV.2 and IV.6; types IV.3, IV.4 and IV.5 had fixed March/April 2026 deadlines and are not represented as open.
Other condition
For types IV.1, IV.2 and IV.6, Fund payment is due within 14 days: to the grantee if invoices were paid before the payment request and proof of payment is supplied; otherwise to the supplier named on invoices issued to the governing body.

Applies only to the named activity types; destination depends on invoice settlement status at payment request. Source says within 14 days but does not specify calendar days vs working/business days; no day-count convention is inferred.

Other condition
One applicant may request prize support for at most three contests, with total support capped at PLN4,800.
Other condition
For IV.6, a decrease in the number of participants, laureates or persons receiving mentions proportionally reduces the grant amount.

Applies to IV.6 settlement; separate from the prohibition on double financing prize-purchase costs in §IV.6(g), physical p.12.

Other condition
Maximum of three laureates in each age category and at most three age categories; up to seven honorable mentions per category. The Fund verifies the difficulty level and grant decreases proportionally if actual participant/laureate/mention counts are lower than planned.
Other condition
Access criterion requires the requested support to comply with public-aid rules. This does not classify every applicant or activity as State aid.

No dedicated aid declaration or regime-specific form appears in nine bound route materials; applicant-specific classification/regime remains conditional and unresolved.

Other condition
Current linked package establishes an aid-compliance gate but contains no dedicated aid declaration/form and does not identify a specific State-aid regime; applicant classification and form requirements remain conditional and cannot be inferred from this record.

Bounded to nine linked route package documents; no outside aid form selected.
