infoDev
announces a new round of funding for ICT Infrastructure and E-Readiness
Assessments, and they are currently accepting grant applications. infoDev
expect to approve 5 - 10 additional grants averaging about $50,000
each during this round.
This ICT Infrastructure and E-readiness initiative will build upon earlier
efforts by infoDev (such as the Y2K initiative) to help developing countries
evaluate their information infrastructures. Grant-funded activities should
be completed within six to eight months of the awarding of the grant.
Further information on preparing a Grant Proposal is available online at:

Charity
Know How Grant Program |
|
www.allavida.org/charityknowhow/ |
| |
|
|
There
will be two Charity Know How (CKH) grants rounds in 2002, with deadlines
on 26 February and 27 August 2002
The following information should be read in conjunction with the CKH guidelines
already published on the website. In addition to the criteria listed in
those guidelines, CKH would particularly welcome applications, which address
the following:
- Innovative projects with new approaches to problems- Cross-border partnerships
within the four priority sub-regions listed on page five of the guidelines
(i.e. Balkans and Carpathians; Caucasus; Central Asia; Western CIS).
- Partnerships where skills and 'know-how' are transferred from larger,
more experienced NGOs to smaller, grass-roots, community-based organizations,
which would otherwise have limited access to funding. In such cases, we
will accept applications from partners in one country.
- Sustainable partnerships, which involve a longer-term engagement between
the organizations, rather than a short-term partnership, which exists for
the terms of the project only.
