What the grant funds

This project aims to arm young girls and women with tools to counter cyber stalking, protect them from becoming victims of trafficking and sexual exploitation, and promote safe, online behavior. Project Objectives: 1) To train 375 rural and urban girls and college-going women between the ages of 15-21 living in the states of Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Odisha with tools to protect themselves from cyber predators. The training will be provided through 15 workshops – five in each of the three states – over a period of one year. While most workshops will be in English, trainers should be prepared to deliver workshops in Telugu or Odia language, where required. 2) To train 125 urban girls and college-going women between the ages of 15-21 living in the Delhi National Capital Region with tools to protect themselves from cyber predators. The training will be provided through 5 workshops over a period of one year. While most workshops will be in English, trainers should be prepared to deliver workshops in Hindi language, where required. Applicants are not required to pursue both project objectives listed in this NOFO. They can choose to submit an application that addresses one or both objectives/deliverables based on their capacity and geographical expertise. If an applicant chooses to submit a proposal that addresses only one objective, the Public Affairs Section reserves the right to reduce the budget associated with the project.
