This grant, offered by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL), is designed to fund projects in Ethiopia. The primary purpose is to address and mitigate ethnic and religious incitement, fostering an environment of peace and stability. Organizations are invited to submit proposals for initiatives that specifically target the roots of such incitement. All proposed projects must also ensure consistency with fundamental freedom of expression principles, balancing the need to counter harmful rhetoric with upholding democratic rights.
