Call for project bids to promote open societies and address climate change in Slovakia

The British Embassy in Bratislava invites Slovak non-profit organisations to submit proposals for projects of up to 5,000 euros that will:

promote open societies, either through:

supporting effective and transparent governance, robust democratic institutions and the rule of law

promoting social inclusion and gender equality

defending universal human rights, or

reduce the impacts of climate change and enhance biodiversity

Bids can focus on one or several of these topics. Successful bidders will be expected to provide end-to-end delivery of their proposals, including regular updates, as agreed in advance with the embassy.

We can consider co-funded activity but you should make clear in any proposal if this is the case and the details of any co-funding.

All project activity must be complete and project completion reports submitted by 17 March 2023.
