Description
1) Objective
The UN Trust Fund is inviting civil society organizations with proven expertise in ending violence against women and girls to submit project concepts to end violence against marginalized women and girls. Applications from women’s rights, women-led, constituent-led and small organizations are strongly encouraged and will be prioritized. Partnerships with smaller, local and grassroot women’s and girls’ rights organizations are also encouraged, with up to 4 implementing partners.
This Call aims to support Civil society organizations on the frontlines of ending violence against women and girls who are facing intensive pressure: shrinking civil space, rising resistance and widening funding gaps. The Call responds to the urgent need for long-term, flexible funding and wraparound support that enables those organizations to remain resilient and lead change.
2) Eligibility
In this call for Proposals, the UN Trust Fund will prioritize applications from women’s rights, women-led, and small women’s organizations, in recognition of them being the driving force of the ending violence against women and girls agenda, as well as being at the forefront of reaching at-risk women and girls and survivors at the grassroots level.
3) Location
Actions can take place worldwide.
4) Budget
Bi-annual funding model with reduced grant ceiling of USD 800,000 – to fund more organizations while maintaining long-term, flexible four-year support.
5) Application
The application is open until 19 November 2025. All applications need to be submitted in the Grants Management System.
