To all nations of the world,

The Department for International Development was established in April 2015, by Chancellor Mark Foster in order to lead Edom's work to end extreme poverty and provide essential aid to foreign countries around the world who are struggling to maintain peace or support their citizens.

The Department for International Development works to end the extreme poverty through providing aid to create new jobs, unlocking the potential of girls, boys, men and women and helping to save lives when humanitarian emergencies hit. The department is responsible for honouring Edom's international commitments and taking action to achieve the Millennium Development Goals. It makes Edom's aid more effective by improving transparency, openness and value for money, whilst targeting Edom's international development policy on economic growth and wealth creation.

We aim to improve the coherence and performance of our international development policy in fragile and conflict-affected countries; through improving the lives of girls and women by providing better education and a greater choice on family planning. This is achieved by preventing violence against girls and women in the developing world and helping to prevent climate change and encouraging adaptation and low-carbon growth in developing countries.

Nations who wish to apply for international aid are more welcome to fill out the application form found on this website. We strongly recommend however that you read through all of our advisories below before you fill out the application.

Thank you for time, patience and continued support,

The Rt. Hon. Luke Boselli,
Secretary of State for International Development

How to apply

---

Applications must be completed, in English or Latin, on the concept note form provided below. We will not consider applications submitted in any other format. The concept note is a short document which helps us to easily identify any organisations that do not meet the basic eligibility criteria for funding.

Up to three concept notes (for different projects) can be submitted for Community Partnership grants. If you are applying as part of a consortium, this will also count towards your total of three. However, please remember that you can only hold a maximum of two grants at any one time.

Organisations which already hold two grants are not eligible to apply, unless one of these grants will have finished before the proposed project would commence. We anticipate that projects funded under this round of aid will finish by December 2015.

Applications must have a sensible, concise project title. The title should be 1 concise sentence, which includes 3 pieces of information:
i) what change the project will make
ii) who will benefit
iii) the country(ies) in which the project will take place

e.g. ‘'Improving access to effective maternal and child health services for rural communities in two districts of Edom.”

There is no formal resubmission process for Aid. You should consider very carefully the feedback provided on any previous concept note or proposal before deciding whether to submit a new concept note for the same project in a future round. All concept notes will be considered in competition with others submitted to the same round.

The completed concept note form is the only document that you need to submit at the concept note stage, unless you feel it necessary to provide supporting evidence. All completed concept notes must be submitted electronically. If you are submitting more than one concept note, each should be attached to a separate e-mail.
