FY 2015 Notice of Funding Opportunity for NGO programs benefiting urban refugees in South Africa.
Proposed activities should support refugees and asylum seekers residing in South Africa with priority areas being urban centers such as Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg, Port Elizabeth, and Pretoria.
Urban programs should, where relevant, include efforts to identify and reach out to hidden refugees, identify and build upon existing services (including government services), provide information about and referrals to existing services, establish a clear method and criteria for identifying and assisting the most vulnerable refugees and asylum seekers, adopt a community-based approach that takes into account host community needs, and avoid creating refugee-specific parallel services to what already exists in the community.
Priority sectors include protection/legal services, access to existing social services, and livelihoods support.
