WB's 2005 Small Grant Program on Social Accountability
The World Bank Colombo Office is inviting nongovernmental and civil
society organizations in Sri Lanka to submit their applications for the
Small Grants Program 2005.
The theme for this year's Small Grant Program is "Social
Accountability", a World Bank statement said.
The program will support civic society organizations in
programs that will strengthen the voices and harness the power of
communities by utilizing community media directly or indirectly in
extracting accountability.
The grant amount will be a maximum of US$5000
[approximately Rs. 50,000/-] per grantee and the applicant must indicate
a willingness to match an equivalent amount for completing activity
within one year.
All registered nonprofit, nongovernmental, and civil
society organizations are eligible but priority will be given to
organizations that have not been supported by the Small Grant Program in
previous years. |
