Intended to assist applicants in drafting applications, as well as in implementing and finalising the approved operations) . It is the project manager’s bible throughout the lifetime of the project. Regularly updated, it contains implementation guidelines for approved projects, along with useful templates and resources. Many questions from project partners will find the answers within – so please refer to it before contacting the JTS! Make sure you have the latest version by downloading below.
