What the grant funds

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Embassy Tbilisi, Georgia (Embassy Tbilisi), in collaboration with the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), is pleased to welcome proposals for projects via the Julia Taft Refugee Fund from potential partners working in the area of refugee protection in Georgia. Please carefully follow all instructions below. Program Objectives The U.S. Department of State’s Julia Taft Refugee Fund responds to critical gaps in refugee assistance by funding durable solutions to the problems refugees and other displaced persons face. The intent of this initiative is to provide U.S. ambassadors with the means to respond to critical gaps that have not been addressed in larger multilateral refugee programs. The Taft Fund is intended for projects that include a target beneficiary base of at least 50 percent refugees, internally displaced persons, or returned refugees. PRM is also interested in supporting projects to prevent and resolve statelessness and seeks to support local organizations to support equal access to protection, assistance, and other solutions for LGBTQI+ refugees and stateless persons. Consideration for support is also given to projects that benefit both populations of concern and their host communities. The Julia Taft Refugee Fund is not meant as an emergency fund.
