Call for Proposal for Civil Society Organization(s) to implement gender-responsive interventions in the dairy value chain

UN Women plans to engage a Responsible Party as defined in accordance with these documents. UN Women now invites sealed proposals from qualified proponents to provide the requirements as defined in the UN Women Terms of Reference. 

The overall objective of the intervention is to empower women in the dairy value chain by improving their access to knowledge, productive resources, and decision-making roles. 

The interventions are expected to increase productivity and enhance milk quality through the adoption of Good Dairy Farming Practices (GDFPs), while also strengthening the infrastructure and systems for milk collection, testing, and traceability. They will promote environmental sustainability and encourage youth participation in dairy farming as a means of ensuring long-term sector resilience.

 At the same time, the interventions will build women’s technical and entrepreneurial capacities, foster leadership and engagement, and improve their access to modern equipment, financial literacy, and market linkages—enabling them to become more visible, capable, and empowered economic actors within their communities.

Proposals must be received by UN Women at the address specified not later than 23:59 on date 7 August 2025.

The budget range for this proposal should be within a maximum of 15,000,000 ALL
