2022 Julia Taft Fund for Refugees in Ethiopia

2022 Julia Taft Fund for Refugees in Ethiopia


Deadline: 7-Feb-22

The U.S. Embassy in Addis Ababa, under the auspices of the Office of the Regional Refugee Coordinator and the Community Grants Program Office, is pleased to announce the availability of a funding opportunity through the 2022 Julia Taft Fund for Refugees.

The Julia Taft Fund for Refugees (also known as the Ambassador’s Refugee Fund) is an initiative by the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) to respond to critical unmet needs of refugees. Created in 2000, the Julia Taft Fund for Refugees supports projects that fill gaps in refugee services not already being addressed by other organizations and that can be filled locally. Successful projects are those that are not being addressed by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), other international organizations, or non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that are already receiving USG funding.

While the Julia Taft Fund is open for applicants to propose any project that could best serve refugees in their region, there is particular interest in programming that provides gender-based violence and/or mental health and psychosocial support to urban refugee populations in or around Addis Ababa who have relocated due to the conflict in Northern Ethiopia. Note that all proposals are required to have at least 50% of the beneficiaries be refugees.

Funding Information
Project budgets cannot exceed $25,000 USD.
The 12-month performance period will begin July 2022.
Eligibility Criteria
The Julia Taft Fund for Refugees is limited to registered non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with at least 1-2 years of experience working in Ethiopia.
Preference will be given to local NGOs and CSOs.
Note that the Julia Taft Fund for Refugees is meant to cover a one-time need and will not support a program for more than one year.
