SEIA Sida Conference Strategic Fund: Call for Concept Notes

Last date : December 31, 2016

 
With support from the Government of Sweden, SEI (Stockholm Environment Institute) funds events focused on environmentally sustainable development, gender equality, and poverty reduction. Organizations across Asia or addressing issues in Asia are invited to submit concept notes.
The Regional Asia Environment Conference Support Programme funded by Sweden aims to promote informed dialogue where different groups and stakeholders can share knowledge in regional forums and other strategic events with the goal of helping to shape public policy to advance environmentally sustainable development.
The programme is an initiative under the Sida-SEI Strategic Fund managed by SEI’s Asia Centre.
SEI welcomes concept notes for events in Asia on advancing environmentally sustainable development, gender equality, and poverty reduction.
The events should preferably bring representatives from government, the private sector, and civil society together with researchers, and feature active exchanges between participants.
Overall, the programme seeks to change mind-sets and everyday practices to ultimately benefit the citizens of the region, with particular attention to poor and marginalized groups such as, but not limited to, women,children, ethnic minorities and other environmentally vulnerable groups based on their specific contexts.
A total of 1,200,000 SEK will be awarded evenly in the 4 quarters of a year to support 4 strategic events each year with the maximum limitation of 300,000 SEK. The awards can fund an event in its entirety or provide supplemental funding.
