Invitation to tender

Construction and operation of mother-child homes
in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Uganda

We welcome long-term concepts for holistic and sustainable support for girls and women with their children who find themselves in a difficult situation (e.g. due to social disadvantage or domestic violence).

The shelters could be a low-threshold first point of contact and, apart from legal advice and medical care, provide both temporary and longer-term places for them and their children, as well as educational or training opportunities.

After the end of the project, integration into local structures should be as good as possible.

Authorized to submit applications:

Corporations (e.g. associations, foundations or gGmbHs) based in Germany, Austria and Switzerland that are recognized as charitable by the tax office, as well as municipalities, parishes and educational institutions.

Cooperation with a local, audited partner organization in the target country is a prerequisite for project funding.

Maximum project duration:

Total period of up to 5 years, funding commitments are made for a maximum of 2 years in each case.
