Deadline: 29 July 2014

Are you based in one of the following countries of Central America – Belize, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico? Does your organization have Women and girls as one of the program areas? Do you have a project focusing on adolescent/youth sexual and reproductive health and rights? And/or a project focusing on girl’s (under age 18) equality? The Seattle International Foundation (SIF) invites Expression of Interest (EOI) from local young adult led organizations working on projects basically focused on young women. The young adult leaders aged 18 to 35 years in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico are invited to apply for the Central America Youth Fund (CAYF).

The CAYF is concerned about the challenges faced by young people in Central America, particularly women. High adolescent fertility rates, low secondary school completion, child marriage/early unions for girls, discriminatory gender attitudes and behaviors, and inadequate provision of reproductive health services and comprehensive sexuality education in schools are primary focus of the CAYF.

The CAYF will award four to six One year grants of up to US$35,000 each under this call. These young adult leaders will implement innovative projects designed to demonstrate measurable impacts on girls’ equality and/or adolescent/youth sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Key Dates

  1. 29 July 2014 – Expression of Interest (EOI) submission deadline
  2. 4 August 2014 – Application Status notification deadline
  3. 18 August 2014 – Full proposals submission deadline

  • Proposed projects must focus on one or both of the following – adolescent/youth sexual and reproductive health and rights; and girl’s (under age 18) equality.
