Sources we read

Research notes: Call 500/07-09-2026 (ΟΠΣΚΕ code ΚΑΠ-20), published 12.09.2026. Area covers Karditsa regional unit (Thessaly) plus the Thessaliotida municipal unit of Domokos (Phthiotis, Central Greece), hence two regions. Budget figures are indicative public expenditure per sub-intervention as published by ΑΝ.ΚΑ. (the third training line is coded 2.2 twice on their page). The 65–100% range is stated by the LAG; the rate for each sub-intervention must be checked in the full call (it is not confirmed that every business investment gets 65%). Evaluation method not confirmed by us; LEADER private calls are normally scored (the Pella call uses comparative evaluation). Amount fields empty because per-project limits were not available to us.
