How AMIF is structured in Ireland

Ireland opted into AMIF in 2022. Unlike ESF+, there is no intermediate body — the Funds Administration Unit grants directly to NGOs via open competitive calls for proposals.

AMIFReg. (EU) 2021/1147€63.52m for Ireland (Jan 2025) · €10.94bn AMIF EU-wide

How the money reaches an organisation

Every level here can be asked for its own process map. That is the point of yours.

🏛
European Commission — DG HOME
Ireland: €53.10m EU + €10.42m national and beneficiary co-financing (January 2025). The thematic facility can add more in later years, so the figure grows.
🏢
Dept. of Children, Disability and Equality — Funds Administration Unit (MA)
Managing Authority (contact: amif@equality.gov.ie); issues grants directly to NGOs via competitive calls
📋
Programme Monitoring Committee (PMC)
Cross-departmental oversight forum — coordination role only, no funds pass through it
🏘
No formal regional body
Grants go directly to implementers; no LCDC-equivalent layer exists for AMIF
