How to get hints at possible double funding in keep.eu?

Are you assessing a project proposal or reviewing funded activities and want to know whether similar work may already have received Interreg funding? Keep.eu can help you identify projects that merit further investigation.

Start in Projects and documents with distinctive terms describing the proposed activity, product, service or investment. Rather than searching only project titles, consider searching fields such as descriptions, expected results, achievements and outputs.

Then refine your search using the information available to you. Geography can help identify similar activities implemented in the same territory. Project dates can help you focus on activities taking place during a relevant period. Other filters can help you narrow the search to particular programmes, themes or types of project.

If a particular organisation is relevant to your investigation, you can also use partner information to find projects in which that organisation has participated.

Open potentially relevant projects and compare their objectives, activities, outputs, partners, locations, dates and financial information with the case you are examining. Where project documents are available, these can provide additional detail.

Finding a similar project in keep.eu does not demonstrate double funding. It provides a lead for further investigation. Similar organisations can legitimately participate in different projects, and projects addressing the same challenge may fund complementary rather than duplicate activities.

Tip: Save the URL of a useful search using Get results’ URL. Returning to that URL later will run the same search against the updated keep.eu database.
