Deadline: March 17, 2024
Applications for the Mama Cash Grant 2024 are now open. Mama Cash supports ambitious self-led feminist organisations and initiatives that defend and advance the rights of women, girls, and trans and intersex people. The Resilience Fund provides core, flexible, long-term support for up to 10 years. This enables grantee partners to strategise, plan and carry out the work they want to do, in the way that they want to do it – over the long term – so that they can grow, strengthen and sustain their feminist movements.
Mama Cash’s adoption of a regional restriction for new Resilience grants for 2024 stems from an ambition to re-balance their grantmaking portfolio to:
- ensure that the bulk of their funding in 2024 is weighted towards their core, long term, flexible funding and
- maintain transparency about their participatory grantmaking processes, institutional priorities and staffing realities.
Grant
- The value of the grant is between €5,000 – €50,000 per year, average grant size €35,000.
Eligibility
- Open to self-led feminist organisations and initiatives based in the following regions: Africa, West Asia, East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia and Oceania. Applicants for new Resilience Fund grants that are not based in the above-listed regions will not be considered this year.
- To be eligible for the Resilience Fund, groups and initiatives must:
- Work from a feminist, women’s, girls’, and trans and/or intersex people’s rights perspective;
- Be self-led by the women, girls, trans people and/or intersex people they work with;
- Have the promotion of women’s, girls’, trans people’s and/or intersex people’s human rights as their primary mission, and not just as the focus of part of their programmes;
- Push for structural and fundamental change; and,
- Focus on issues that are under-addressed and/or contested in their context.
