The Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) is offering this grant to address critical humanitarian needs and support local integration for vulnerable Colombian asylum seekers and refugees in Ecuador, Venezuela, Costa Rica, and Panama. This grant is for improving beneficiaries’ self-reliance and enhancing government capacity to provide essential services to refugees. Furthermore, it seeks proposals for comprehensive programs assisting Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Colombia during immediate and emergency phases of displacement. The initiative specifically targets gaps in humanitarian aid for vulnerable IDPs, including women, Afro-Colombians, and indigenous populations. Both refugee and IDP programs should focus on providing immediate and emergency assistance, fostering self-reliance, and strengthening institutional support for these highly vulnerable groups.
