Call for Proposals
Empowering civil society organisations and community initiatives through strategic funding opportunities that strengthen democratic governance and citizen participation.
CfP I: Innovation, Learning and Replication
11 grantees advancing innovative approaches, focusing on women's leadership, gender-climate justice, and stronger citizens' voices for accountable governance. This funding window aims to strengthen public advocacy towards greater government accountability under the overarching theme of 'Gender Equality'.
CfP II : Strategic Partners
7 organisations playing a strategic role in the CEF Programme. Beyond implementing their own initiatives, they work jointly with other CEF Grantees to strengthen capacities and foster collaboration. These partnerships focus on thematic strategies relevant to SDG 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality).
CfP III: Initiative Driven Grant
2 grantees, DALIT and BNNRC, advancing social inclusion and addressing technology-driven violence against women through their initiatives. These organizations were identified through direct award modality, reflecting their strategic alignment with CEF's programmatic priorities.
CfP V- Initiative Driven Grant
Call for Proposals V (CfP V) under the Nagorikata: Civic Engagement Fund (CEF) was designed as an initiative-driven grant mechanism, rather than an open call for proposals. Under this modality, Nagorikata strategically invited selected organisations and consortia with demonstrated experience, credibility, and alignment with the Programme's objectives to design and implement targeted civic engagement initiatives.
CfP VI: Targeted Grant Invitation
This Call for Proposal aimed to empower and activate CSOs working in the disability sector to design and implement impactful, inclusive, and sustainable initiatives. Invited organisations were expected to outline how they will address the needs of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) through innovative approaches grounded in rights, representation, and community relevance.
