Prospective applicants of STAR-Ghana Foundation’s Action for Voice and Inclusive Development (AVID) Project, have been enlightened on processes and requirements for submission of their proposals.
The virtual information session was organized by the Foundation to, among other objectives, clarify and address concerns from organizations seeking to partner in the implementation of the project, which targets minority and underserved groups. A total of 91 organizations comprising of Community Based Organizations (CBOs), Representatives of the Fulbe groups, and organizations working with women and person with disabilities joined the session.
With funding from the Flora & Hewlett Foundation, the AVID Project is targeted at organisations of disadvantaged social groups (citizens) with the aim of increasing their voices and participation in governance, inclusive access to quality public goods and services and contribute to the sustainability of these organisations as vehicles for citizen mobilisation. During the two-hour session, participants were taken through presentations on the Call for partnership advertisement, concept note template, eligibility criteria, focus areas, timelines and other grants application guiding principles required to respond to the call for partnerships appropriately.
