EFNA #BrainLifeGoals Project Grants and #BrainLifeGoal Photo Competition

EFNA #BrainLifeGoals Project Grants

During Brain Awareness week EFNA launched the 2020 round of #BrainLifeGoals Project Grants. This year the focus will be on:

Ensuring Equitable Access to Treatment, Services and Support for Neurology Patients and their Carers.

Access to treatment is one of the central #BrainLifeGoals of many neurology patients, and EFNA want to help make that a reality across Europe. EFNA will provide grants of €3,000 each to up to 10 selected organisations.

Projects should be proposed by a non-profit organisation, registered and operating in Europe.

Deadline for application is extended to Friday, May 31st.
