Steps to Completing the UNDEF Application Form:
- UNDEF provides an example application form.
- You can use this form to complete your application off-line; then go online to the online application form and submit your application.
- You need to have a computer with an Internet connection to submit your application form on the UNDEF online application form.
- You must register your organization on the UNDEF website by creating a profile before you can apply for UNDEF funding.
- Once you have registered your organization, an email message will be sent by the online system (also known as the OPPS system) with a login username and password. Use this username and password to log into the UNDEF website to complete your application form.
- You do not need to complete the online application form all at one time. If you do not want to submit your application right away, choose the “SAVE” option located at the end of the online application form.
- Once you are confident that your application is complete, click on the “SUBMIT” button. NOTE: Once you hit the “SUBMIT” button you CANNOT go back and edit your application again. So, hit the “SUBMIT” button when you are absolutely sure that your application is complete.
