The United Nations Development Programme is requesting proposals from civil society organizations including NGOs and/or CBOs under its call for proposals for the establishment of Justice and Confidence Centers (JCCs) in Southern Sudan.
The objective of this project is to identify 3 CBOs/NGOs/ based in Juba, Rumbek and Aweil to establish Justice and Confidence Centers. The number of locations will be dependent on funding received, and a combination of different implementing partners may be used to support the different locations. In the target locations, the selected CBOs will typically undertake the following JCC related activities;
- Constitutional and human rights training and awareness
- Provision of some legal information and limited legal advice
- Referrals to legal and psychosocial services as available
- Promotion of traditional and informal justice systems at community level and customary court monitoring
- Support to the justice sector meetings and trainings.
The deadline to submit proposals is 31 August 2010. For more information, visit this link.
