Grants for German-speaking Old Austrians to Legal Entities

Grants for German-speaking Old Austrians to legal entities in Carinthia support projects that have a historical or cultural connection to Old Austria. As an ongoing funding opportunity, applications can be submitted year-round since 01.01.2014 without any time limit. Recipients of the funding are legal entities such as companies, foundations, associations, or public institutions engaged in the thematic fields of “Commitment to social cohesion/democracy” as well as in the area of “Work & Social Affairs.” The goal is the sustainable preservation of Old Austrian traditions and memory culture through initiated measures in Carinthia.

Funding requirements include the submission of a completed application form including a detailed financial plan, a legally binding subsidy declaration, and a formal funding commitment. Upon a positive decision, a document audit and the validation of original invoices up to the amount of the granted subsidy will take place; a final proof of use must be submitted mandatorily. Interested legal entities can find all necessary documents in the general guidelines for direct funding from state funds and may contact the Office of the Carinthian State Government, Department 1 – State Office Directorate, for any questions. The continuous submission option allows flexible project planning and timely implementation of important projects with Old Austrian relevance in the Carinthia region.
