The Chapter eligibility to get the funds and the amount assigned to each
Chapter will be determined by the Chapter Evaluation Report. The criteria that
are used to evaluate the Chapter are in line with the minimum criteria as
outlined in the Chapter Charter letter. In order to provide you with your
individual information, the details about the funding and to validate the data
we have about your Chapter, <b>each of your Chapter Development Managers will
contact you before the launch of the programme. </b>Failure to provide
information on time, may result in unfavorable evaluations, and therefore a
lower fund allocation.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
