Deadline: 31 March 2016
The Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa (OSISA) has announced a call for grant applications for the year 2016.
OSISA supports innovative programmes working towards open society ideals and which advocate for these ideals in southern Africa. The programmes support will look beyond immediate symptoms and seek to address structural problems that reproduce poverty, inequality, exclusion and discrimination.
For the 2016 strategy year, OSISA invites proposals from civil society, community or state actors from our region for the following programme priority areas: –
- Human Rights, Access to Justice and the Rule of Law
- Democracy and Governance
- Social and Economic Justice
- Natural Resources Governance
- Youth Arts and Culture
- Women’s Rights
Organizations in the Southern African can apply.
In our grant making, OSISA recognises that there are some emerging and other leading civil society groups and formations such as community-based organisations and social movements operating in our region, which are not formally registered entities. OSISA is willing to consider concept proposals from such unregistered and informal groups and formations that, if approved, may then be further developed into fully-fledged grant proposals for consideration.
