D-8 Project Support Fund

Dear Member, 

In the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, with reference to the letter of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dated 04.02.2022 and numbered 33946988: the Developing Eight (D-8) Organization for Economic Cooperation, consisting of our country together with Bangladesh, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Egypt, Nigeria and Pakistan, is an organization established in 1997 to develop cooperation for development among member countries and to enrich economic and social relations.

Our Union is a founding member of the D-8 Chambers of Commerce and Industry (D-8 CCI), established on the margins of the D-8. Within the framework of our country's D-8 term presidency for 2017-2021, the term presidency of the D-8 CCI was also carried out by our Union. At the 9th D-8 Summit held on 20 October 2018, the idea of establishing a Project Support Fund to be used in D-8 project activities emerged.

In this framework, the letter referenced above, with reference to the Note received from the D-8 Secretariat, states that the D-8 Project Support Fund has been established to support pre-feasibility and feasibility studies for the implementation of projects and programmes in the fields of agriculture, industry, trade, energy, tourism, transport and health within the framework of the D-8, and that D-8 Member countries wishing to benefit from this Fund must submit their project proposals to the D-8 Secretariat.

The project to be selected by the D-8 Commission must involve at least 3 D-8 member countries. It is envisaged that the D-8 will provide funding of up to a maximum of 20.000 Euros per project for pre-feasibility and feasibility studies, and that the implementation period will be a maximum of 12 months.

The Application Specifications and the Project Proposal Form of the D-8 Project Support Fund are attached, and companies wishing to benefit from the said Fund must fill in the Project Proposal Form and submit it to the official of the D-8 Secretariat (Mr. Sheikh Mohammad Moinuddin, IT Expert, E-mail: [email protected]; Mobile: 0506 395 61 83) by 30 April 2022.
