Deadline: 7-Aug-22
The British High Commission Maseru is inviting local NGOs and established community-based organisations to bid for funding for the sustainable provision of Assistive Technology to people with disabilities.
Objectives
- All projects must lead to sustainable improvements in the provision of assistive technology in Lesotho. For example, this could be through changes in policies/ practices; development of low-cost alternative technologies; or additional training that will lead to improved maintenance of devices, or enable better use of existing resources.
- The grant will not support the direct external purchase of Assistive Technology (AT) devices for individuals.
Funding Information
Bid for small grant funding of up to M100, 000.
Selection Criteria
Bids will be judged on:
- potential impact (including the scope of the project and the likelihood of achieving that impact)
- evidence that the bidding organisation has strong links with the target communities and relevant prior experience
- value for money
- sustainability, including the potential for the project to be scaled up or replicated elsewhere
- the capacity of the bidding organisation, including a track record of previous successful projects
- proper presentation of project objectives and budget
