British Council are offering three grants of between £5000 and £8000 to organisations in Wales and Sub Saharan Africa (SSA) to collaborate digitally on international projects.

This funding they are offering is from the Official Development Assistance (ODA) budget.

Therefore your project application must meet certain requirements.

An Official Development Assistance compliant project proposal should:

Demonstrate that projects will make a positive contribution to the social and economic development of the Official Development Assistance country involved;
Aim to further sustainable development (development that is likely to generate lasting benefits for the population of the country to which it is provided) or improve the welfare of the population.

ELIGIBILITY

Open to organisations in Wales and Sub Saharan Africa (SSA)
If you have already recieved funding from the British Council for the proposed activity you are not eligible to apply for additional funding.
