Applications call for CIPESA Africa Digital Rights Fund 2020

The Africa Digital Rights Fund (ADRF) offers flexible and rapid response grants to select initiatives in Africa to implement activities that advance digital rights, including advocacy, litigation, research, policy analysis, digital literacy and digital security skills building.

Round three of the ADRF is particularly interested in proposals for work related to Covid-19 response measures, how they affect the internet rights landscape, and how to redress any resulting harms to rights and freedoms. This effort is essential because, even in pandemic times, governments must respect rights and not abuse emergency powers. Moreover, many actors need access to credible information and research to inform their own work on awareness-raising and holding authorities to account during and in the aftermath of Covid-19.

Theme Areas

Initiatives not focused on Covid-19 but working in various thematic areas, including but not limited to the following are also welcome to apply:

Eligible Activities

The activities that are eligible for funding are those that protect and advance digital rights. These may include but are not limited to research, advocacy, policy analysis, litigation, digital literacy, and digital security skills building, and participating in digital rights legal and legislative processes.

Prizes

Grant amounts range between US$ 1,000 and US$ 20,000, depending on the need and scope of the proposed intervention. The grant period will not exceed 6 months. It is anticipated that around 10 grants will be awarded in this round. Grant size in round three shall range from US$1,000 to US$20,000. Cost-sharing is strongly encouraged.
