Share-Net International Small Grants 2021
Share-Net International has announced its Small Grants Call for 2021! This call is open to all members of Share-Net. Becoming a member of Share-Net Bangladesh automatically makes you a member of Share-Net.
The focus of the small grants of 2021 is steered towards innovation and piloting new approaches, translating existing knowledge into products and/or promote its use to influence and improve SRHR practice and policy.
The objectives of the grant can be three-fold:
- Investigate and test new and innovative approaches in SRHR and identify unheard perspectives (i.e. knowledge gaps in the linkages between SRHR and gender equality, youth and/or links with other SDGs).
- Translation of research into products and materials that will be used to facilitate tangible change in policy or practice. This process can build on research done by our members in the field of SRHR.
- Documenting actual changes in policy and practice, related to work done through earlier Share-Net International grants or work of Share-Net members, and how these have been implemented.
Share-Net Bangladesh encourages applicants to submit proposals which:
- Focus on gender-based violence and/or the intersection between SRHR and SDG 5 (Achieving Gender Equality and Empowering Women and Girls)
It is crucial to show how the grants will contribute to changes in policy or practice, and to include an analysis of when and how this change will be effectuated, including the expected benefit for specific SRHR targets and groups. This should be clearly described in your application. The proposal should therefore include a communication plan for achieving these results.
The upper limit per grant is 10,000 euros. However, we do encourage applicants to budget as carefully as possible, so that more proposals can be granted. You can find more information about the small grants facility on the Share-Net International website.
