Call for concept notes: Scaling Care Innovations in Africa

In partnership with Global Affairs Canada (GAC), IDRC invites concept notes to advance gender equality through the promotion of policy and program innovations that foster the recognition, reduction, and redistribution of women’s unpaid care work in sub-Saharan Africa. Part of the five-year Scaling Care Innovations in Africa initiative (hereafter referred to as Scaling Care Innovations), the goal is to harness locally generated data and evidence to guide care policies and interventions to improve lives and livelihoods of marginalized women and girls.

This call involves a two-stage process, with submission of concept notes in the first stage, followed by full proposal submissions by shortlisted candidates.

IDRC invites applications related to two streams of work: policy innovations (Stream 1) and program innovations (Stream 2). Applicants should indicate which stream they are applying for.
