Support for Micro-Entrepreneurship Initiatives
This year, the REBOOT programme will provide support to selected micro-entrepreneurship initiatives, helping vulnerable individuals start or restore businesses. The support includes microgrants, business skills development, and access to networks and markets. The first recipients have already opened or revitalised their businesses, including hairdressing salons, coffee shops, and more!
To apply, participants must submit a complete Business Plan and undergo a verification visit. Applications will be assessed based on the following criteria:
- evaluation of the Business Plan;
- contribution of own resources;
- viability and sustainability of the business activity;
- business experience;
- assessment of the interview with the applicant.
Business ideas can be submitted by registered IDPs able to conduct economic activity within the community or by local residents affected by war, including veterans, their families, and those who lost jobs or businesses. The primary participants are employable persons aged 18 to 65 who meet one of the following criteria:
- Households caring for elderly people (over 65 years old) or persons with disabilities (groups I or II).
- Families with two or more minor children (under 18 years old).
- Single parents.
- Unemployed individuals (both registered and unregistered with employment centers).
Compliance with these criteria ensures support for the most vulnerable population groups.
Applicants can submit their application to their nearest REBOOT Service Point.
*Note: 2024 applications are closed now. Stay tuned for the opening of 2025 applications.
