Bratislava: call for proposals for projects supporting open societies
The British Embassy in Bratislava is inviting Slovak non-profit organisations to submit proposals for projects that support open societies.
The British Embassy in Bratislava invites Slovak non-profit organisations to submit proposals for projects of up to €6000 on the following topics:
- promote human rights, the rule of law and strengthen democratic institutions
- support media freedom and investigative journalism to help Slovakia to improve its ranking on the RSF World Press Freedom Index

- promote the recognition of the valuable contribution to society of the LGBT+ community in Slovakia
Bids can focus on one or several of these topics. Successful bidders will be expected to provide end-to-end delivery of their proposals, including regular updates, as agreed in advance with the Embassy.
We can consider co-funded activity but please make clear in any proposal if this is the case and the details of any co-funding.
All project activity must be complete by 14 March 2022.
