The Australian Embassy has announced a call for proposals for the fiscal year of 2018-19 under the Direct Aid Program.
The Direct Aid Program (DAP) of the Australian Embassy is a flexible, small grants program which focuses on relieving humanitarian hardship and advancing developmental objectives in Lebanon through projects that are consistent with Australia’s international relations and public diplomacy objectives. Each year, the Embassy’s DAP committee assesses proposals for small development projects from individuals, community groups and non-governmental organisations engaged in development activities on a not-for-profit basis.
The Embassy is looking for projects that:
- Are participatory in nature, and have involved the beneficiaries in the identification, design and management of the project.
- Address the needs of vulnerable or disadvantaged groups, including women, children and the disabled
- Address poverty alleviation, community health, environment and education, human rights, rural development or gender equality.
- Have a lasting developmental outcome, either by creating infrastructure or building sustainable human or organisational capacity.
Budget Information
- Have a budget of maximum USD20,000.
- Can be completed within by 31 May 2019 (approval may occasionally be given for projects that span two financial years – this must be agreed prior to the commencement of the project).
