Strengthening Local Civil Society Organization’s (CSO) Capacities and Women’s Leadership in Peacebuilding and Human Security

UN Women Bosnia and Herzegovina, within the framework of the project “Women Lead the Way Towards Peace and Security in Bosnia and Herzegovina”, implemented with the support of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Peacebuilding Fund (PBF) and in partnership with the Ministry of Human Rights and Refugees of Bosnia and Herzegovina, is seeking to sign a Partner Agreement with a CSO that has the capacity to deliver targeted training, mentoring, and grants to local women peacebuilders and grassroots CSOs.

The total budget available for this call for proposal is up to BAM 320,000.00.

The activities will be implemented for a period of 14 months, starting with July 01, 2025.
