Beneficiaries of grants

In order to facilitate the accountability of the EU towards its own constituencies, UN agencies are required to publicize information on "beneficiaries of grants", i.e. non-profit vendors of services and vendors of goods financed from EU contributions.

This requirement applies to items with a value of more than US$ 100 000 and only for projects for which Contribution Agreements have been concluded after 1 May 2007.
