Deadline: 28 February 2018
Applicants are invited to submit applications for Direct Aid Program (DAP) which is a flexible, small grants scheme for development activities in Tunisia managed by the Australian High Commission in Malta.
The emphasis of the program is on alleviating basic humanitarian hardships and is an integral component of Australia’s overseas development program.
DAP projects should be aimed primarily at achieving practical and tangible outcomes, such as on poverty alleviation, community health; schools/education; small-scale infrastructure; rural development; gender equality, environmental benefits including managing or adapting to climate change and ad hoc humanitarian relief.
The focus should be on activities that have a direct impact and may include capacity building projects, particularly in the areas of governance and human rights engagement. Projects that support people with disabilities to improve the quality of their lives through accessing the same opportunities for participation, contribution, decision-making, and social and economic well-being as others are strongly encouraged.
Attention will be given to projects providing direct benefits to those most in need in the local community, including vulnerable or disadvantaged groups, women, children and youth. Projects should address gender issues in their implementation.
Funding Information
Grants will be awarded up to a maximum of $10 000 (AUD).
