02.01 General information on (country ).

The amount of necessary information available on a country hosting a project application under the Model will vary sharply from case to case. The following may serve to give an outline. The questionnaire form may also be found useful.

The information in this section should be kept very short and very simple. A page or two is enough. The most important factors for the project are those influencing the quality of life of the people in the project area. What do the people (in the project area) actually do and how do they do it? This general country-level information is intended to provide a simple framework for the project. Use existing, easily accessible sources.
