Call for Partnership Under Unwomen 5

Safadi Foundation is responsible for implementing in North Lebanon a project aiming to support the refugee and the Lebanese women that are affected by the Financial Crisis due to COVID-19 Pandemic. The project “Women’s COHESION: (COvid-19 response, through Humanitarian, and Economic Support, including Integration, and Ongoing Networking)” is an action funded by the UN Women in Lebanon.  

This 1-year project aims at empowering women to have better access to decent work in a protective environment.

In coordination with UN Women, Safadi Foundation is therefore launching a call for proposals whose specific objective is to develop positive changes and opportunities for women inmates through enhancing their capacity by offering them opportunities for bettering their economic situation upon their release.

The aim of this call for proposals is to partner with a Lebanese national non-governmental organization (NGO) to implement three main activities:

1: Provide 200 hours of Vocational training and 100 hours of soft skills training to 40 imprisoned vulnerable women in the Qobbeh area.

2: Provide awareness and psycho-social support sessions of 20 hours to 40 imprisoned vulnerable women in the Qobbeh area.

3: Provide cash for work allowances to 40 women for 4 months after their release date from prison.
