Grants available to support Safe Spaces for Key Populations to access Treatment and Screening for STIS

Deadline: 10-Aug-2024

The Caribbean Vulnerable Communities Coalition (CVC) through funding under the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Global Fund Grant Agreement Number: QRB-C-OECS is pleased to be able to offer a cycle of community grants to support local NGOs and CSOs who are working to support key population communities from vulnerability and risk to resilience through funding to support safe spaces.

The OECS Sustainability, Resilience and Movement toward an OECS Regional Health Agenda, is a three –year grant with the Global Fund aimed at eliminating HIV, TB and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) in the Eastern Caribbean. The project operates in six participating OECS Member States: St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Antigua and Barbuda, St. Lucia, Dominica, St. Kitts & Nevis and Grenada. CVC has been selected as a Sub-recipient for the key population component of the grant.

The Caribbean Vulnerable Communities is the largest coalition of community-based organizations (CBOs) in the Caribbean, bringing together leaders, actors and more than 80 civil society organizations working with marginalized populations especially vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. It provides a platform for dialogue on coordinated policies and responses addressing vulnerability, human rights and sexual and reproductive health.

The model safe spaces should seek to create a “KP-friendly” physical or virtual environment, or a combination of both, for KP members in alignment with features that have been identified to likely promote a successful safe space in KP community programs including:
