Are you a registered Ghanaian Civil Society Organization working for the promotion of human rights? Do you have a project in mind and need support to make it real? This “Dwabo” call for proposals is for you!
The Embassy of France aims to encourage the strengthening of civil societies in Ghana through the “Dwabo” small grants programme in order to enable stronger policy advocacy and increase stakeholder engagement. For its second edition, the “Dwabo” small grants programme will be dedicated to the promotion of Human Rights and democratic debate.
In this light, the French Embassy in Ghana is seeking high quality project proposals that seek to promote, protect, advocate and educate on human rights. The Embassy encourages the submission of proposals on awareness-raising, capacity-building and actions by CSOs in Ghana. Multi-action projects, including public democratic debate or public engagement (respecting Covid19 protocols), will be preferred to one-off projects.
Funding Information
- Each successful project will be supported with a grant ranging from € 7 000 to € 10 000 for a duration of 12 months for project implementation.
Eligibility Criteria
Any Civil Society Organization (CSO) legally registered to operate in Ghana can apply. Conditions for CSOs:
- CSOs that are legally registered and recognized in Ghana;
- CSOs that are affiliated to known coalitions and networks;
- CSOs with offices in the regions, and especially in the districts where they plan to implement the project. Credible national CSOs may also collaborate with local CSOs located within their preferred project districts to apply for a Project.
