Submission deadline: 08 September 2021

This is a second round of the Call for Proposals that address civil society organizations of six Eastern Partnership countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine) promoting gender equality, women’s empowerment, prevention and combating gender-based violence.

The proposals are expected to suggest continuation of the initiatives started during the first round of the Call for Proposals, announced in 2020, or to suggest new initiatives that will contribute to tackling and combating gender stereotypes and adverse social norms as the underlying causes of gender inequality and violence against women as its most pervasive form.

The initiatives, supported through this Call for Proposals, will be complementary to the activities implemented by UN Women and UNFPA under the joint project “EU 4 Gender Equality: Together against gender stereotypes and gender-based violence" project, funded by the European Union” in six project countries.

The proponents in Moldova are invited to submit proposals that can be implemented in the two selected districts (Straseni and Falesti). The proposals should suggest capacity development, awareness raising, advocacy, communication, and/or other creative solutions to address gender stereotypes, social norms and discriminatory practices against women and girls in the areas that include but are not limited to:

● Responsible parenting and fatherhood

● Distribution of unpaid care work and freedom of choice in the family

● Women in the labour market (including gender pay gap)

● Women in politics and decision-making, including in security and defense sectors

● Violence against women and girls (including domestic violence)

● Women’s empowerment and freedom of choices

● Education

● Discrimination against vulnerable and marginalized groups of women and men, including people living with HIV, Roma women, people with disabilities, single mothers, mothers of children with disabilities, older women and other marginalized groups.
