The call funds gender-responsive humanitarian preparedness, response, and recovery, alongside social cohesion, peacebuilding, and economic empowerment in crisis and conflict settings.
Programmatic projects must improve access to inclusive, life-saving humanitarian services or advance women’s participation in green socio-economic recovery and political decision-making. Institutional grants help women’s rights and women-led organizations sustain their operations and strengthen their capacity. Initiatives should reach women and girls experiencing intersecting discrimination, including exclusion linked to geography, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, age, migratory status, or HIV status.
