Description

Folke Bernadotte Academy (FBA) is inviting organizations or foundations for its 1325 Grants, a UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR), highlighting the importance of women’s participation and protection in conflict and post-conflict situations.

UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 and the following resolutions 1820, 1888, 1889, 1960, 2016 and 2122 all highlight the importance of women’s participation and protection in conflict and post-conflict situations. Each year the FBA grants funds to projects that support the implementation of those resolutions that promote women’s equal participation in issues concerning peace and security, as well as programmes aiming to support capacity-building for women’s organizations in conflict or post-conflict situations.

Funds can only be granted for those projects that are consistent with the OECD/DAC guidelines for official development assistance (ODA) in conflict and post-conflict countries.

  • The maximum term of a granted project is 15 months. Applications seeking to extend or develop projects that have been granted funding earlier may be submitted;
  • Unless otherwise stated in the decision, projects that are granted funding are to be launched within two months of the decision;
  • Projects already undertaken at the time of application will not be granted funding.
