Scottish Government funds for NGOs

Deadline: 26th Nov 2014
Interest Area(s): Children & Young People; Community; Disability; Education: Environment; Heralth;
Human Rights; NGO Capacity Bldg and Social & HumanServices

Scottish International Development Organisations can now apply for funding through year
two of the Scottish Government's International Development Small Grants
Programme. This will distribute approximately £500,000 in 2015 to support projects
that help some of the world's poorest countries and fit within the Scottish
Government's International Development Policy. Eligible projects must be focused
in one of the Scottish Government's priority countries, contribute to the achievement
of the Millennium Development Goals (and the post-2015 Framework in due
course), and the alleviation of poverty and economic growth in the priority countries.
These are: Malawi, Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the
Indian States of Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Orissa. Incorporated not-for-
profit organisations which have a presence in Scotland and an annual turnover of
less than £150,000 are eligible to apply. The Programme is specifically intended to
accommodate smaller requests for funding to contribute to current International
Development policy and outcomes and to overarching Scottish Government
outcomes. Therefore, although there are maximum grant levels in place, it is
envisaged that a range of project sizes will be supported through the Programme.
There are three types of grants available: Project, Feasibility and Capacity
Building. Applicants may only apply for one type of grant in each funding year.
