Bureau of Population Refugees and Migration

Description

Current Funding Priorities: a. Concept note activities should support refugees and other vulnerable populations in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey. Projects are encouraged to allow for support of other refugee populations, including Africa refugees and Palestinian refugees from Syria. With the exception of Iraq, concept note activities are restricted to beneficiaries living outside of government- or UNHCR-run camps. Concept notes are encouraged to incorporate efforts to increase the capacity of national actors (both governmental and NGO) to respond to the needs of refugees and displaced populations. Because of PRM's mandate to provide protection, assistance, and sustainable solutions for refugees and victims of conflict, PRM will consider funding only those projects that include a target beneficiary base of at least 50 percent refugees/IDPs (IDPs in Iraq only). IDP returnees may also be included in concept notes related to Iraq. Programs in non-camp areas should, wherever possible, pursue a community-based approach that also benefits host communities. b. Concept notes must focus on one or more of the following sectors per the Country-Specific Guidelines (see PRM's General NGO Guidelines for sector descriptions).c. Applicants should submit separate concept notes for each country program. No regional or multi-country concept notes will be considered. PRM will not entertain multiple proposals from one applicant for the same population in a single country. PRM reserves the right to ask that an NGO merge two concept notes into a single proposal upon review.
