Acknowledging the grant received from the European Youth Foundation of the Council of Europe is one of the basic requirements of the “Grant acceptance form”. As a grant beneficiary it is mandatory to sign and return the form by post to the EYF before any payment is made to you.
You should read carefully all the general and specific requirements (made by the Programming Committee on Youth) before signing this official document which engages you to respect the terms agreed upon. Do make sure that that you acknowledge the grant received from the EYF and the Council of Europe correctly.
The Council of Europe has developed a visual identity and a logo (a few years back) aiming to increase the visibility of the organisation and differentiate itself from other European organisations.
Since 2012, the European Youth Foundation has undergone various changes, developing a clearer identity and strong values, along with new grant categories and other technical upgrades. Along with this, the EYF developed a visual identity for itself, which would reflect the work it engages in by supporting European youth NGOs and their activities.
In order to increase its visibility and facilitate the work of NGOs, the EYF has developed best-practice on ‘how to acknowledge’ the Foundation as well as various visual identity variations.
Do make use of this resource, as the EYF will carefully check if and how the acknowledgement is provided.
