Cyclically described it comes to assistance in securing funds, as well as the use of continuous and final backup of the contents developed, always with the aim to enable new activities. Different resources are developed and informed about these offers; this includes internal and infrastructural resources.

In addition, the department administrates current, already approved, externally funded projects, coordinates the project partners and moderates workshops and coordination meetings.
