Latest 2011 Call for proposals- EU grants for CSOs in Sri Lanka

2011 call for proposals- EU grants for developing greater cohesion in working on human rights for CSOs in Sri Lanka

Deadline for submission of concept notes:       September 30 2011, 12.00hr Colombo time


The EU under the The European Instrument for Democracy and Humna Rights  Program (EIDHR) has issued a  restricted call for proposals from eligible non-state actor organizations and local authorities  under the “Non-State Actors  (NSAs) and Local Authorities in Development” thematic programme.

The specific objectives of this programme are to support civil society in developing greater cohesion in working on human rights (notably civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights), political pluralism and democratic political participation and representation.

The European Union recognises the expertise that civil society in Sri Lanka possesses and its fundamental role in promoting peaceful conciliation of group interests, in fighting against discrimination on any ground, and in developing equal gender participation in social, economic and political life, thus becoming an effective force for positive change, through effective cooperation among local civil society organisations and stakeholders.
Priorities
1.   Partnerships and/or networking of non government organisations, community based organisations, and other relevant stakeholders are encouraged under this programme.
2.   Emphasis should be given to strengthening and supporting local civil society organisations, building their capacity so as to ensure continuity and sustainability of the actions;
3.   Proposals for activities that aim to facilitate inter-community involvement and promoting conflict mitigation are particularly encouraged.
4.   Beneficiary and target group participation at the project design stage is encouraged and proposals should explicitly incorporate this as a part of project activities.
5.   Applicants must – wherever possible – consider close collaboration and/or coordination with ongoing EU funded actions so as to enhance the potential for sustainability and synergies of interventions and maximise the benefits for the communities involved in a harmonized manner.
