Deadline- 22 January 2014
Proposals are accepted for United Nations Trust Fund in Support of Actions to Eliminate Violence against Women offered under United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. The purpose of this program is to expand the global knowledge base on ‘what works’ while supporting the piloting, testing, up‐scaling, evaluation, documentation and dissemination of catalytic, innovative and promising approaches that carry a promise of broader application.
Funding-
- For large civil society organizations, governments and UN Country Teams, budget requests should be within the range of a minimum of US$ 300,000 to a maximum of US$ 1 million total for duration of two to three years.
- For small civil society organizations, especially grassroots women’s organizations and youth‐led organizations, budget requests for a minimum of US$ 50,000 will also be considered.
Eligibility & Criteria-
- Civil society organizations and networks, including non‐governmental organizations that are legally registered in the country of implementation.
- Regional/international civil society organizations and networks that have national presence in the country(ies) and/or territory(ies) of implementation. In this case, the proposal must indicate how the proposed interventions will contribute to national capacity development and ownership of national and local organizations in the implementation.
- Operational research/evaluation institutions specialized in gender equality and gender‐based violence.
- Government authorities at central/national, sub‐national and/or local levels, including National Women’s Machineries and other sectoral Ministries. A government entity may either apply individually or as part of a UN Country Team proposal, but not both.
- UN Country Teams (UNCTs) are eligible where requested by the government and in partnership with women’s groups, organizations and/or networks, as well as with other civil society organizations. Only one application per country is permitted.
