The PMU supported the preparation and conclusion of grant contracts carried out by various bodies, including municipalities, unions, foundations, associations, and CSOs in Northern Cyprus. Through the PMU we provided support to grant beneficiaries and their projects through several capacity-building workshops and promoted the grant scheme and the projects supported by it through various visibility activities. Thanks to these projects, the Turkish Cypriot community had been able to apply the acquis (the body of common rights and obligations binding on all EU Member States) and enhance alignment with the EU in the sectors mentioned above.
