UN Women Timor-Leste CFPs to Promote Non-violent and Gender Equitable Norms

UN Women Timor-Leste CFPs to Promote Non-violent and Gender Equitable Norms


Deadline: 29-Oct-20

UN Women Timor-Leste through the EU-UN Spotlight Initiative is seeking a non-government organization to develop or adapt programming with faith-based groups aimed at promoting non-violent and gender equitable norms at individual and family level, community mobilization and documentation and sharing of learnings. In all of the activities, there should be an effort to engage with people who are most marginalized.

Seed Grants
Initiatives such as SASA! Faith identifies the important role that faith groups can play in prevention of violence against women and girls:

Many women experiencing violence and men using violence look to their religion and religious community for support.
Religious leaders have the trust of a large and committed body of believers who are eager to live their lives based on their guidance.
Religious institutions often have well-organized networks of people in both urban and rural areas, as well as allies at all levels interested in supporting their efforts.
Project Results

Result 1: Non-violent and gender equitable norms are established at individual and family level.
Result 2: Strengthened community mobilization efforts on ending violence against women and girls, including DV/IPV.
Result 3: Strengthened community response on violence against women and girls, including DV/IPV.
Result 4: Documentation and sharing of learnings about approaches on EVAWG through faith groups.

The budget for this proposal should be no more than USD 90,000.
