We support innovative activities which assist victims and survivors in rebuilding their lives and regaining hope and dignity. We fund such projects on the basis of the following criteria:
- The project should directly address the harm (whether physical, psychological, economic or social) caused by the conflict and target the most vulnerable and marginalised survivors.
- The selection of project beneficiaries and the implementation must not result in discrimination based on a social status.
- We favour reparations activities which are directed to groups, based on similarities in their claims or situations.
- The project must avoid duplication with other interested institutions and promote complementary approaches.
- Victims and survivors should be active participants in the implementation of the project.
- The project should include an outreach component to ensure that it is understood by the beneficiaries and their communities.
- It should be designed to be sustainable, beyond the life-span of the funding from the TFV.
- The project organisers must be able to show that the intended target group benefits from the project and the resources allocated are used efficiently and effectively.
If your project fits these criteria, you can submit an application for support. While not all proposed projects can be funded due to limited resources, your application will be carefully considered. If you are a group working directly in your community to help victims, and you need help turning your idea into a project that meets our criteria, we can provide you with support.
