The Asia Foundation is a non-profit international development organization committed to improving lives across a dynamic and developing Asia. Informed by nearly seven decades of experience and deep local expertise, their work across the region addresses five overarching goals—strengthen governance, empower women, expand economic opportunity, increase environmental resilience, and promote regional cooperation.

Award Implementation Period: The implementation period for grants is 6 to 12 months.
Approaches
Ensuring improved safety and security for local communities, especially women and girls.
Ensuring all communities have equitable access to local information and services and are meaningfully engaged in inclusive dialogues and decision-making with local government service providers.
Enabling young men and women to better understand shared values that underpin constructive dialogue between diverse communities and the role that these values play in strengthening inter-community relations and civic responsibility.
Eligibility Criteria
Funding will be limited to not-for-profit, registered, local civil society organizations. Organizations should be currently operating in at least one of the ten districts. The main location of your proposed project must be within the ten districts mentioned.
