Opportunity Information: Apply for BH 001 FY2025
The WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT SMALL GRANTS PROGRAM (Funding Opportunity Number: BH 001 FY2025) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina designed to strengthen women’s ability to participate as equal actors in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s economic, civic, and political life. The program is aimed at practical, results-oriented initiatives that move past basic awareness campaigns and instead lead to concrete action, measurable behavior change, or lasting institutional change. In other words, projects are expected to do more than inform; they should help shift how communities, organizations, or systems operate in ways that expand women’s real opportunities and influence.
A key priority is supporting efforts that foster solidarity and cooperation among women across divisions that often fragment public life in BiH. Proposals are encouraged to connect women from different cities, political parties, or ethnic groups, helping build networks and shared agendas that can sustain collaboration beyond a single event or campaign. The opportunity also explicitly encourages support for vulnerable and marginalized women, signaling a preference for projects that address barriers faced by groups that are often underrepresented or excluded from decision-making and economic participation.
Eligibility is limited to Bosnia and Herzegovina-based and legally registered entities. Eligible applicants include non-governmental, non-profit organizations such as think tanks, civil society organizations, and non-profit associations, as well as educational institutions and independent media organizations operating in BiH. U.S. organizations, other donor-country organizations, and individuals are not eligible to apply, and awards are generally made only to organizations rather than individuals. To keep participation broad and to avoid duplicate submissions, each organization may submit only one proposal under this program.
The award ceiling is USD 50,000 per grant, with an expectation of making approximately six awards. The application closing date is January 27, 2025. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the listing is associated with CFDA number 19.900. Overall, the program is structured as a small-grants mechanism intended to back locally rooted organizations that can demonstrate credible plans to achieve tangible empowerment outcomes for women in BiH, particularly through initiatives that create durable change and strengthen cross-community solidarity.Apply for BH 001 FY2025
