About the call
The German Embassy has opened its micro-projects call for 2027. Funding is concentrated on Chernihiv, Sumy and Kharkiv oblasts. Priorities: better obstetric and neonatal care (lower infant mortality, inclusive care for women with disabilities) and the economic resilience of single mothers (upskilling, advice on starting a business).
The maximum is normally EUR 25,000. An own contribution is one of the selection criteria, though no minimum share is set. The project must not have started yet, must finish by the end of 2027 and deliver benefit for at least 3 years; materials are bought in Ukraine. Operating costs (salaries, fees, rent, utilities), vehicles and measures for police or military structures are not funded.
