In 2023 the Global EbA Fund introduced two funding tracks: a general EbA project proposals track and a thematic proposals track. The application process and cut-off date are the same for both tracks.
For its 6th cut-off date set for 15 September 2023, applicants interested in submitting under the thematic track are asked to propose a project around Indigenous and Traditional Knowledge in EbA.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to undertake the EbA E-Learning Course prior to developing a project proposal. It is a self-paced online course that equips learners with transferable and replicable skills in designing and implementing EbA initiatives by offering targeted training on key principles, risk assessments, monitoring, and governance.
We encourage you to start developing your EbA proposal! Please consult the What We Fund page to see if your project concept will meet all grant selection criteria and eligibility requirements.
Core Indicator Framework
The Core Indicator Framework was developed with the goal of supporting the monitoring and communication of the grantees’ project outcomes. This reporting mechanism enables the Fund to show accountability to stakeholders, share joint achievements with the public, and assess and improve future allocation strategies.
Applicants must identify at least three relevant indicators from the Core Indicator Framework and incorporate them into the individual project’s logical framework.
