- Increase access to emergency contraceptives
- Improve adolescents’ ability to make informed choice and obtain Quality reproductive health services
- Increase access to safe abortion
- Resource mobilization in europe
- Resource mobilization in u.s.
- Eradication of female genital mutilation
- Promote microenterprise
- Ensure that millennium development goals (MDGS) prioritize reproductive health
Grant proposals are processed and reviewed on a continuous basis.
The average grant size is $50,000, with actual grant awards ranging up to $400,000.
