In order to ensure relevance, Project Proponents are advised to refer to the ASEAN Community Blueprints and possibly seek guidance from the relevant ASEAN Working Group/Body during the development of the project proposal. Project Proponents are encouraged to identify and state the most appropriate sponsoring ASEAN sectoral body in the project proposal. In doing so, Project Proponents can consult with the ASEAN Secretariat (SPCD and sectoral Desk Officer).Project Proponents are also encouraged to identify the potential source of funding before submitting the project proposal for appraisal.
