Closing Date: November 11,2013.
The SUN Movement Multi-Partner
Trust Fund (MPTF) was established in 2012 with support from the
UK Department for International Development (DFID), the Swiss Agency for
Development and Cooperation (SDC) and Irish Aid to ensure that catalytic grants
reach governments, UN agencies, civil society groups and other SUN partners.
It is not designed to be a vertical nutrition fund for large scale
investments in food and nutrition security, nor to replace existing funding
pathways at country level. Rather, it is a fund to be used for catalytic
actions to enable, initiate or develop SUN Movement activity at country or
regional level and provide appropriate global-level support, when other funding
is not available.
The Management Committee of the
SUN Movement MPTF announces a new call for proposals to support civil society
organizations (CSOs) to mobilize in-country and globally so as to contribute to
realizing SUN commitments and demonstrating results.
This call is for an overall amount up to USD
three (3) million. To the effect of this call, proposals cannot exceed the overall
amount of US$ 300.000 (three-hundreds thousands US dollars) each over a
period of up 24 months maximum. The MPTF Management Committee will review all
proposals in its meeting after the call is closed in late November 2013.
All the proposals will be
assessed against criteria that have previously been set by the Management
Committee. These include:
§
the choice of the participating UN organization
to facilitate any adjustment to the proposal required by the Management
Committee and to support implementation of proposed activities [we have
concluded that there are advantages to working through current UN mechanisms
for joint agency action - such as the REACH partnership - where they are
available];
§
the technical soundness of the proposal
(situation analysis, institutional clarity, clear deliverables, means of
verification, conflict of interest management procedures in place or in
process);
§
a focus on clear and measurable results;
§
the extent to which intended activities of the
CSO alliance are aligned with national policies and strategies for scaling up
nutrition and the degree of support from the SUN country Focal Point (on behalf
of the national SUN multi-stakeholder platform) for these activities;
§
the extent to which the proposed activities of
the alliance are linked to (and backed by) other civil society platforms
in-country (ideally these would be demonstrated by signed letters of support or
similar testimonials) with a view to more inclusive civil society participation
in national SUN platforms;
§
the planned use of any grant that will be
received from the MPTF (the MPTF position to date has been that funds should
not normally be used to pay per diems and other allowances for civil society
participation in SUN-relevant events, for engagement of international
consultants or for the development of communications and dissemination tools
that already exist within the SUN Movement and/or are accessible via the SUN
website).
