This Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) grant offers funding for NGO activities supporting refugees and asylum seekers in urban Egypt, primarily Cairo and Alexandria. The initiative prioritizes proposals focused on protection and access to basic social services for urban refugees. Key sectors include legal services, gender-based violence prevention, education, vocational training, mental and physical healthcare, community outreach, self-reliance/livelihoods, and housing/shelter. Applicants must demonstrate an existing working relationship with UNHCR, ideally with current funding, and strong coordination. A letter of support from UNHCR, highlighting the service gap addressed by the proposed program, is highly recommended for priority consideration.
