Proposal writing support

Subsidy advisor at IDEA Consult

Brussel, Belgium

About

IDEA Consult is looking to connect with local authorities preparing a proposal for the DUT Call 2026 (Driving Urban Transitions – 15-minute City, Circular Urban Economies, Positive Energy Districts).

We offer hands-on proposal-writing support throughout the two-stage DUT procedure: from subsidy scans and consortium/partner scoping, to co-creating objectives, work packages, budget and impact indicators, to drafting a competitive pre-proposal and full proposal against DUT's three evaluation criteria (excellence, impact & user engagement, quality & efficiency of implementation). For Flemish local authorities specifically, we can also help structure the national PILBO track (partnership with a Flemish company, budget balance, VLAIO annex).

Our team has over 25 years of experience helping governments and public organisations turn ambitions into fundable projects and manage them through implementation and reporting — across regional, Flemish, federal and European subsidy programmes, including in territorial development and climate transition policy.

If you are a local authority (or a company/knowledge institution looking for a city partner) building a DUT consortium, let's talk.
