Fondation SUEZ Grants to support Essential Services (Water, Sanitation and Waste) for Disadvantaged Populations in Developing Countries

Deadline: 30 April 2020

Fonds SUEZ is seeking applications for its grant program to combat exclusion by favouring inclusion and consequently sustainably improving the living conditions and autonomy of persons via access to essential services, social insertion and social harmony.

The Fondation SUEZ supports concrete actions in favour of:

Access to essential services (water, sanitation and waste) for disadvantaged populations in developing countries;
The insertion of vulnerable populations thanks to employment and training in France;
Social harmony through education, culture and sport, in France.
Priorities

15 Extraordinary Opportunities are open for New NGOs
The Fondation SUEZ has set itself several priorities:

To support and accompany development projects via financial and skills-based sponsorship partnerships developed with international solidarity organizations, non-profit making specialized institutions.
To accompany humanitarian and emergency operations in the field of access to essential services.
To support and accompany insertion projects encouraging employment and training in France. The Fondation is making a long-term commitment in this sense and is looking to contribute towards the social and economic revitalisation of territories.
To support and accompany social cohesion projects via education, culture and sport. The Fondation hopes to contribute towards preventing the exclusion of young people, limiting their marginalisation thanks to educational support projects and access to cultural and sporting practices.
To reinforce the expertise of local players and circulate expertise by supporting actions to professionalize services, put in place specific training programmes and foster networking between players.
To boost innovation and research applied to the realities of the field in developing countries, namely via the organisation of a Prize to reward and promote innovative projects having proven their worth and which can be replicated.
Location/implementation Zone

For access to essential service projects, the Fondation supports projects implemented in developing countries. It does not intervene in so-called developed countries within the context of the domain considered. The Fondation is looking to focus its actions on problems encountered in urban and peri-urban areas: projects meeting this criterion will be studied as a matter of priority. However, projects in rural settings will not be disregarded if they permit the management of the services provided to be structured on a long-term basis.
