Funding to improve the educational experiences of refugee and displaced children in the Middle East and Europe.
The Al Madad Foundation, a registered charity based in London, is working to empower some of the world’s most vulnerable children by providing safe spaces to heal, learn and grow.
This call focuses on projects that specifically address innovative solutions to accessing formal education as well as employment-focused vocational training, answering specific needs and presenting realistic solutions for refugee and displaced children and youths.
In order to be considered eligible, organisations must:
- Be a registered charity in the country in which they are headquartered; individuals who wish to apply can only do so in conjunction with a registered organisation (eg an academic researcher might apply with the backing of their university).
- Be able to meet the Foundation's reporting requirements.
- Have a Child Protection Policy in place that conforms to the laws of the country in which they operate and a clear methodology that demonstrates that it is appropriately and consistently applied.
There is a total funding pot of £100,000 for this call. Organisations can request up to the full £100,000 for up to three years, though more than one organisation may be funded so smaller requests are also accepted.
Charities must be working in an eligible country, the list of which can be found here.
The deadline to apply is 4 October 2022 (11pm BST).
