This project has its main goal set up in strengthening the NDAs and Collegiate Body Capacities, focusing on four main areas: i) establishing and strengthening NDA, ii) preparation of a country programme, iii) support for accreditation of direct access entities iv) developing initial pipelines of projects. This readiness proposal will build on the results of the ongoing readiness project, as the NDA and Collegiate Body will be able to present a first version of its Country Programme in order to involve other stakeholders in its updating process.
