Please follow all instructions below. Program Objectives: Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), we are soliciting proposals focused on advancing tolerance and integration of vulnerable minority groups in Slovakia that address one or more of the following priority areas: 1) protection of the human rights and wellbeing of LGBTQI+ people and/or raising awareness on LGBTQI+ issues; 2) support for Roma inclusion in social, economic, and political life; 3) advancing the rights and integration of ethnic and religious minorities; and 4) countering extremism, hate, and intolerance against minority groups in Slovakia. Proposals in the above areas may include, but are not limited to: capacity-building for civil society organizations; advocacy for vulnerable minority groups; providing and expanding support, services, trainings, and overall empowerment to members of the vulnerable minority groups; creating welcoming and supportive communities; advancing public awareness and tolerance toward members of the vulnerable minority groups; and building greater public and political support for minority rights in Slovakia. Applicants are encouraged to give particular consideration to activities with a regional dimension and a multiplier effect. Successful proposals may include strong participation and involvement of minority group members. Applicants should outline realistic, measurable project goals, justify their approach, and specify project performance indicators. Applicants are encouraged to develop sustainable, impactful projects linked to their organizations’ long-term goals and agenda, with a strong public communication component.
