What the grant funds
The purpose of this funding call is to develop evidence regarding the local context on social, economic, and cultural realities for child trafficking victims in Nepal. Evidence should be derived from previous research, qualitative and quantitative methods, and generate a comprehensive understanding of child trafficking in Nepal with the ultimate goal to determine where to target resources, which interventions to deploy, and whether the interventions are culturally appropriate and responsive to the local context. Applicants should propose beginning with a literature review (Stage 1) prior to conducting a formative research study (Stage 2). It is expected that completion of this study will not exceed 30 months.
