The PRM Department is offering this grant to support NGO programs benefiting Burmese refugees in Thailand, Bangladesh, and Malaysia. This grant is for addressing critical humanitarian needs, with funding prioritizing activities that align with the Bureau’s objectives. In Thailand, focus areas include comprehensive health services (curative, preventative, reproductive, mental health, HIV/AIDS), water/sanitation, and gender-based violence (GBV). For Burmese Rohingya in Bangladesh, the grant emphasizes a holistic, district-wide approach, aiding both registered refugees within Kutupalong and Nayapara camps, and unregistered Rohingya alongside local Bangladeshi host communities. In Malaysia, priorities encompass healthcare, education, and GBV prevention and response for Burmese refugees. Applicants should align proposals with these specific country-level needs to best meet PRM’s funding criteria.
