FAPA — Prix d’excellence internationale (international excellence award, New Caledonia)
This strand of the craft promotion support fund aims to recognise craftspeople who have won awards at competitions held outside the territory. The catalogue is not enough to establish the possible amount, the competitions recognised, the period taken into account or the formalities: these parameters must be specified by the manager.
An award won at a competition outside the territory can strengthen a craftsperson’s credibility, showcase their know-how and support their commercial visibility. The FAPA international excellence award is listed to reward craftspeople who have won medals or prizes at competitions outside the territory. The practical recognition arrangements must be confirmed with the fund.

Who can apply
The scheme targets craftspeople who can show an award won at a competition or event outside the territory. Check the craft status required, the competitions recognised, the date of the award and the supporting documents accepted.
Eligibility conditions
The award criteria, the nature of the reward, the eligibility period and the possible amount must be confirmed in the FAPA rules. An award should not be treated as automatically rewarded without a decision by the manager.
What the scheme covers
The benefit is linked to recognition of a prize or medal won outside the territory, rather than to general investment financing. This recognition can enhance the craftsperson’s profile and visibility; any financial support should be described only according to the official scale.
Amount and funding terms
The catalogue indicates: The cap per craftsperson is XPF 60,000 (€500), at XPF 20,000 per medal and/or prize won. This amount is information to be checked: it is neither a promise of award nor confirmation of the scale currently open.
How to apply
1. Gather the diploma, medal or official certificate from the competition. 2. Document the organiser, date and place of the award. 3. Ask the FAPA manager whether the competition and the period are eligible. 4. Send the application according to the procedure indicated and wait for confirmation of the award before communicating about a fund-related prize.
Timeline
The timetable depends on the arrangements for recognising awards. Confirm whether the strand is active and whether a deadline or application period applies.
