Our grants programmes (our long term aims)
It is our long term aim to provide grants to support the widest range of Civil Society organisations possible, to enable them to engage more effectively through advocacy and accountability strategies and initiatives, to facilitate the concerns and aspirations of all Ugandan Citizens to be heard, to increase their freedoms and entitlements and their quality of life.
We intend to make all of our main grants programmes open to Civil Society Organisations of any size, and working in all parts of Uganda. We therefore intend to launch and run a number of different grants programmes focussing on other issues of need and to suit different types of organisations and projects over time, but we initially intend to start with a single, very focused, programme and will launch more programmes when we are able to do so.
Our first main grants programme will focus on supporting projects that help people and CSO’s engage in rights based issues and help improve the quality of life in the community. Full details are given below.
You can download the application pack to apply for a grant under the first programme. It contains the following information.
- The guide: this contains important information about who can apply for a grant, what you can apply for and how to apply.
- An application form: you must fill in the form in this pack or use a form that you can download from our website. Please send it to us with all of the information we ask for.
Special grants programmes
From time to time we may run other specific programmes which we will publicise as special programmes.
