Search for Common Ground (SFCG) has announced a small grant call for proposals for NGOs in Egypt and Tunisia. The MENA Common Ground Institute (CGI) Small Grants Call for Proposals has been launched to support local organizations to implement dialogue initiatives in their communities. In order to raise acceptance of dialogue processes by local community members, civil society, media and local governments, projects should involve multiple stakeholders.
Projects funded in the framework of this call may focus on diverse topics of local importance including but not limited to peacebuilding and conflict resolution, countering violent extremism, civic participation, democratic transition, gender advocacy, sustainable development, and social entrepreneurship. Most importantly, projects should focus on promoting and enhancing the quality of dialogue while demonstrating how dialogue can be effectively used in addressing local/national issues. Proposals should highlight innovation in the promotion of dialogue and mention the indicators of the project’s success in the application form.
In addition to the financial grant, the awarded organizations in the framework of this call will receive a specialized training workshop on designing dialogue processes.
