El contexto es un documento sobre incentivos económicos para empresas. Dice: "Línea de ayuda de Cooperación Internacional para elaboración de propuestas comunitarias. Esta línea de ayudas está diseñada para ser efectiva en la promoción de la participación de nuestras empresas en proyectos europeos"
