The Part C section of the application form seeks information about the project that is being proposed for funding support. The C1 – C3 sections of the project seek basic information such as the project title, project location and the project duration. The location of the project should preferably be in a city or town with a population of not less than 10,000 people. The project duration should not be less than 12 months and the starting date should be proposed six months after the date of the submission of deadline of Youth Fund.
The C4. Requested grant will have the exact figure of the total budget proposed for the project. Please keep in mind that it should be either small grant less than $5,000 or large grant between $5,000 and $25,000.
The C5. Goal of the project should explain within 50 words as to the broader, overall, long-term aim to be achieved in the implementation of the project. Remember to present the goal with a focus on urban youths. While writing the goal, always remember that you are contributing towards a broad, long-term development. This could be “Empowering the urban youths” or “Mainstreaming youths in politics” or going by the application guidelines, “alleviating poverty among youth.”
In relation to the focus of your project, you can tick the relevant priorities of the Urban Youth Fund listed in C6:
- Promoting youth participation in urban governance
- Piloting innovative approaches to adequate shelter and secure tenure for youth
- Promoting entrepreneurship and employment for youth
- Supporting the development of youth networks on sustainable urban development
- Promoting partnerships between youth organizations and the local government or the private sector
- Promoting gender mainstreaming in urban youth development
- Documenting best practices in urban youth-led development
The C7 section demands the specific target groups and their numbers. If your project is about building the vocational skills of urban youths, then specify the number of youths to be trained in your project. Also, it is necessary to specify the age-group of these youths and how they are represented by gender. If the project works only with disadvantaged groups such as youths from minorities or economically backward class or disabled youths, this can also be specified and explained in this section.
If your project is about building the livelihood skills of the youths with vocational trainings, then the C8 section should be filled by specifying how many jobs will be created for youths.
