Funding Information
(Paul Hamlyn Foundation Invites Application for India Fund)
Amount: ₹10,00,000 से ₹40,00,000
Aim of the fund
(Paul Hamlyn Foundation Invites Application for India Fund)
Our work in India centres around funding small NGOs working with the most vulnerable communities in priority geographical areas.
We believe that communities must be central to the work partners undertake and should place people facing disadvantage in India at the heart of leading change and designing solutions to overcome inequality.
The strategic aims of the fund are to:
- encourage NGOs to take on community-centric development programmes;
- enable communities to take charge of their own development and improve their lives;
- encourage development funding to address systemic change; and
- enhance the capacity of organisations and people who facilitate the above aims.
Who we want to support
(Paul Hamlyn Foundation Invites Application for India Fund)
Organisations supported within the Fund have to be local Indian NGOs with Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) registration.
We are looking to fund organisations who are:
- working with communities to develop their ideas;
- improving the overall wellbeing of communities in the long-term – not just short-term improvements;
- developing links between their own work and those of the panchayats (in rural areas) and the municipalities (in urban areas);
- aware of and mitigating their environmental impact and seeking to improve the ecology of the area they’re based; and
- working to promote gender equality and support people of all genders to make change.
Vulnerable communities
We fund organisations working with vulnerable communities. This includes but is not limited the following groups:
- Communities with little or no access to education
- Communities with little or no access to health services
- Dalit communities, particularly those in dangerous or harmful work
- Disabled people, particularly children
- Families living in extreme poverty
- Tribal communities fighting for or dispossessed of their land and resources
- Women
- We want to fund organisations who support these communities to build on their strengths and develop leadership.
