archived

The Political and Economic Section of the U.S. Embassy in Yaoundé, Cameroon, announces an open competition for local organizations to submit applications under the FY 2023 Julia Taft Refugee Fund program. Projects should include a program participant base of refugees or returnees and host communities, with at least 50% refugees/returnees as direct beneficiaries. We will also consider funding projects that support equal access to protection, assistance, and other solutions for refugees who may experience particular vulnerabilities, such as LGBTQI+ individuals, persons with disabilities or older persons, or women and girls. Proposals targeting Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), stateless persons, or vulnerable migrants will not be considered under this program. Proposals can address one or more of the following sectors: WASH, education, health, vocational training, income generating activities, or any relevant social issue. Note : The U.S. Embassy expects to receive funding for the Julia Taft Refugee program before September 30, 2023. Grant awards are contingent on the receipt of funding. If the program is not approved, no grants will be awarded under this call.
