Call for Proposals: Women’s Peace and Humanitarian Fund in Lebanon (2024)

Date: Tuesday, 19 March 2024

The Women Peace and Humanitarian Fund (WPHF) is launching its fourth round of funding in Lebanon. The WPHF call for proposals will be focused on a) the protection of women and girls, and b) Peacebuilding & Recovery. This call for proposals also provides an opportunity for civil society organizations working on the implementation of commitments related to Women, Peace and Security and Humanitarian Action (WPSHA) in Lebanon to apply for institutional funding that will be used to strengthen and sustain their capacities.

Initiatives should aim to reach women and girls experiencing multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination, such as marginalized women and girls due to geography, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity, age, migratory status, HIV status, among others in alignment with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the principle of “leaving no one behind”.

The proposal template to be used then submitted must be aligned to the impact statement(s) of the respective WPHF funding stream that the organization chooses to apply to.
