Key Information: Only registered Bangladeshi NGOs/CSOs may apply; preference for women’s rights organizations and women-led consortia.
This funding opportunity from UN Women seeks to partner with a civil society organization (CSO)—preferably a women’s rights or women-led organization—to implement a 12-month project addressing the medium to long-term reintegration needs and strengthening social protection support mechanisms for the social inclusion of Bangladeshi migrants, with a particular focus on women returnees. The initiative aims to build government and stakeholder capacity to identify and respond to the vulnerabilities faced by Bangladeshi women migrants, improve social inclusion through psychosocial support and community-based interventions, and develop gender-responsive, migrant-centered plans and procedures.
