ILGA-Europe, the European region of the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA), announces its 9th call for proposals within its Human Rights Violations Documentation Fund. Objectives of the Fund The Fund will support small and medium-scale projects (up to 5,000 euros with no minimum amount requirement). The projects should produce or disseminate reports on the current situation and cases from immediate past. The reports should have the potential to be used for advocacy purposes. Eligibility criteria We strongly advise you to read supporting information on the documentation process, including more detailed guidelines on the application process, on our web-site before starting to fill in the application form. For quantitative projects on discrimination faced by LGB people we advise you to consult ILGA-Europe Guidelines on Documenting and Reporting Sexual Orientation Discrimination. Your proposals will be evaluated taking into account the capacity of your organisation to implement the project, the goals of the project, detailed description of methodology you will use for documentation, advocacy potential of the information collected and how you plan in concrete ways to use this potential. Irrespective of the phase of documentation or dissemination process, the applicants have to fill in the entire application form. If you apply for documentation and dissemination / advocacy, the grants will be transferred in two installments. ILGA-Europe will first transfer the amount budgeted for documentation, and will review its quality upon receipt of the contents (e.g. text or video) of the specific project product. Based on results of the review, a decision will be made on disbursement of the amount budgeted for use / advocacy activities, and the transfer will be carried out. ILGA-Europe can also support dissemination / advocacy component only for the purposes of publication (print, internet, CD, etc.) and / or use of documented data for advocacy. To apply for this grant, you already need to have information collected, organised and analysed. The applicants are still required to fill in the entire application form and to attach the information they want to disseminate to their application. A budget should be annexed. It should not exceed 5,000 euros. Proposals for co-funding (up to the amount of 5,000 euros) are also eligible. A maximum of 20 per cent of the budget can go to administrative and office costs. All other costs are eligible if justified by the needs of the project. Proposal deadline The deadline for the 9th round of applications is 15 October 2011. The decision will be made by a board of independent experts within 6 weeks from the time the proposal was submitted. You can submit your application or ask any questions about the Fund to Maxim Anmeghichean, ILGA-Europe Programmes Director. Find the application form here. ILGA-Europe looks forward to your applications and wishes you luck!
