The UN Fund for Gender Equality announces the third Call for Proposals. This year, the Fund welcomes submissions from women-led civil society organizations with innovative, high-impact, and multi-stakeholder women’s rights and gender equality programmes that help jump start progress towards the Post-2015 Development Agenda.

The Fund will grant applications in the areas of:

• Women’s economic empowerment: Can include efforts to expand women’s equal opportunities to access and control economic resources, promote women’s sustainable entrepreneurship, access to decent work and equal pay, and shared responsibility within the household.
• Women’s political empowerment: Can include efforts to promote women’s full and effective leadership and political participation at all levels of decision-making and in all spheres of life, or initiatives to help design, enforce and implement new and existing gender equality laws and policies, or to shift social norms and practices toward greater respect for and enjoyment of women’s equal rights.

Interested candidates are referred to the Call for Proposals and to start preparing for the online application procedure, to be open from 9 March to 5 April 2015.
