Funding for Gender Equality and Women’s Rights Organisations and Movements

Funding for Gender Equality and Women’s Rights Organisations and Movements



Overview

These components will seek to amplify diverse grassroots women’s and girls’ voices in donor, national government and international policy making. They will do this by:

  • funding and facilitating WROs, activists, women peacebuilders and women human rights defenders’ attendance and advance support at key national, regional and international meetings

  • facilitating more informed policy development by better capturing, synthesizing and feeding back learning and evidence from grassroots WROs and movements

    The focus is all ODA-eligible countries including conflict and crisis contexts.

    A key principle is intersectionality. Both components will work with and support diverse WROs and movements, including those led by and representing women with disabilities and LBTQ+, as well as adolescent girl and youth feminist groups.

    The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) is seeking a supply partner or consortium to lead both components, with a consortium which includes partners from the Global South encouraged. The total budget is £4.68 million, with a 3 to 6 month co-creation phase followed by 4 years of implementation.

    This Call for Bids will be awarded under an Accountable Grant Agreement. The lead Supply Partner must be a registered charity (in any country, not solely UK) to apply. Further requirements are listed in the Call for Bids document.
