- In the case of cross-border exchange, the countries that can participate in the project (apart from the two V4 countries) are: Austria, Germany, and Ukraine.
- JU units (e.g. Faculties) decide on the subject scope of the proposal, with the reservation that under the V4 Gen Mini-grant one JU unit may submit only one proposal in the capacity of Leader, provided that the JU unit is not currently carrying out a project financed from the V4 Gen mini-Grants programme.
