What the grant funds

The Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) announces a Request for Statements of Interest (RSOI) from organizations interested in submitting Statements of Interest (SOI) for programs that support the policy objective to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment, including by preventing and responding to gender-based violence (GBV) and online abuse and harassment; principles of the Global Partnership for Action on Gender-Based Online Harassment and Abuse; the leadership of the White House Gender Policy Council; and the direction of the U.S. Strategy on Women, Peace and Security (WPS) and the Summit for Democracy Presidential Initiative for Democratic Renewal (Pillar of Bolstering Democratic Reformers). DRL invites organizations interested in potential funding to submit SOI applications outlining program concepts that reflect these policy priorities, by creating innovative and holistic responses to prevent, protect, and take action against TFGBV.
