4) Application Procedure
There are two ways for civil society organisations (CSOs) to initiate an application for funding for an international development project: (1) Apply through a call for preliminary proposals; and (2) Submit an unsolicited proposal. In a call, interested parties are invited to submit proposals for international development initiatives that will contribute to the achievement of their expected results. For each specific call pertaining to international development initiatives, there will be a specific application form posted to help applicants respond to the specific requirements of that call. Unsolicited proposals can be sent anytime throughout the year. They strongly recommend that the unsolicited proposal complies with the cost share policy and commits to at least 5% cost share. Submission needs to be done in the Partners@International portal.
