Call for Proposals in Colombia

The Women’s Peace & Humanitarian Fund is excited to announce its fourth Call for Proposals in Colombia to strengthen the political and socio-economic participation of women and girls affected by forced displacement.

WPHF seeks to fund qualifying local organizations and projects led by and working alongside forcibly displaced women and girls in Colombia that are high impact, innovative and contribute to the following objectives:

  1. Promote improved socio-economic recovery and political participation of displaced women and girls in peacebuilding contexts;
  2. Reinforce the institutional capacity of civil society organizations working with women and girls in forced displacement.

This Call for Proposals makes available financing for local civil society organizations in Colombia through two primary funding streams:

  • Funding Stream 1: Institutional funding from 2,500 USD to 30,000 USD

To provide institutional financing to local civil society organizations working with women and girls in forced displacement, aiming to reinforce the institutional capacity of their organizations (aligned with WPHF Impact Area 1).

To finance projects that implement programmatic activities contributing to enhanced socio-economic recovery and political participation of displaced women and girls in peacebuilding settings (aligned with WPHF Impact Area 6).
