INFORMATION ON FUNDING:

For these events we have available funding from our Operating Grant budget 2021 to cover the travel costs up to a maximum amount of 550 EURO per representative for the return flight and two-night accommodation.

This contribution will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis with a priority for full members (maximum one representative per member organisation). Please note that VSE Executive Board members’ travel costs are covered through another budget vote.

Please apply for the funding by 23 October 2021 latest if you wish to be considered for this subsidy. In order to be considered for reimbursement or any finance issues, please send a separate email to Mazen Alsiufi, VSE’s finance officer using the following address m.siufi@victimsupporteurope.eu.

For members to be eligible for reimbursements of travel costs, they should provide all supporting documents related to the claimed costs (proper invoices for flight and hotel costs, boarding passes, other receipts) and sign the reimbursement form prepared by Victim Support Europe. Please inform us before making any bookings as the reimbursements will be provided on a first come first come first served basis.

Please note that we will not be able to reimburse costs if the requested supporting documents are not provided within the deadline set by VSE after the event.
