Under its small grants
facility (Regional Facility) and its special fund in support
of EVAW initiatives
(Trust Fund in Support of Actions to Eliminate Violence Against
Women), UNIFEM provides support to a number of projects located
across the region, from Jamaica in the North, through the
OECS, to Trinidad & Tobago in the South, representing
the spread of countries covered by the agency. The projects
fall under the four UNIFEM goals – and have ranged
from computer literacy training, to providing training for
young women leaders, to examining media images of women.
Project Proposals may be submitted by registered
non-governmental organisations, community-based organisations
or inter-governmental organisations. However, UNIFEM does
not support the following: rental/purchase of buildings,
purchase of land/property, or construction/repair of buildings
(including shelters), or fixed capital outlays; salaries;
personal scholarships/fellowships; general operating expenses,
direct services such as hotlines and counselling services;
projects with major focus on population, childcare, health,
refugees or other fields for which there are other established
UN funds.
