The Joint Gender Fund is calling for Proposals

We also heard from Puleng Mkhatshwa - Programme Officer for the Joint Gender Fund. We were talking about the Joint Gender Fund call for proposals. The fund was established to improve the strategic impact and effectiveness of donors to address gender based violence and how it relates to HIV & AIDS and socio-economic empowerment in South Africa. The grant allocations will vary from R100 000 to R1 million depending on the capacity to effectively manage the grant over a two year period. Organizations already receiving money from any of the participating donors, need to show that the request is different to the funds already being received. Opportunity closing date is on Friday, June 14^th, 2013. For more information send an email to puleng@hivos.co.za or go to www.jointgenderfund.co.za
