*[EN]* - *The United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence against Women is
accepting applications for its 21st grant cycle (2017)*
Application deadline: *5 December 2017*



The UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women (UN Trust Fund) awards
grants to initiatives that demonstrate that violence against women and
girls can be systematically addressed, reduced and, with persistence,
eliminated.

Civil society organizations are invited to submit grant proposals for a
minimum of US$50,000 up to a maximum of US$1 million for a period of three
years.



Proposals are invited under the following three programmatic areas:

(1) Improving access for women and girls to essential, safe and adequate
multi-sectoral services to end violence against women and girls;

(2) Increasing effectiveness of legislation, policies, national action
plans and accountability systems to prevent and end violence against women
and girls; and

(3) Improving prevention of violence against women and girls through
changes in knowledge, attitudes and practices.



This year, the UN Trust Fund is also seeking applications that specifically
focus on:

(a) addressing *violence against women and girls in the context of the
current forced displacement and refugee crisis*; or

(b) addressing *violence against women and girls with disabilities*.



Applications from women’s rights, women-led, and small women’s
organizations are prioritized, in recognition of them being the driving
force of the ending violence against women agenda, as well as being at the
forefront of reaching women and girls survivors at the grassroots level.
