• Proof of sufficient staff and technical capacity as well as mention of own initiatives and ability to share costs.

Please note: In order to ensure prompt processing, ⁠UBA⁠ kindly requests that separate statements of intent be submitted for each individual project. The departments in charge at the Agency will assess the statements and take them into consideration should competing statements result in a competitive award procedure.
