Grants to this Grantee
for support of the TIME Initiative
This organizational effectiveness grant to EngenderHealth represents the third and final grant for the TIME Initiative, which aims to support international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) to grapple with how to meaningfully change their organizational structures to shift power in the global reproductive health field. This grant will continue to support this scope and will be complemented by a program grant to Humentum, the consulting partner on this grant, so expand the TIME Initiative to the broader field.
for support of safe abortion care in Tanzania and globally
The grant to EngenderHealth will support access to high-quality, gender-equitable, and age-appropriate sexual and reproductive health and rights services, including comprehensive abortion care and postabortion care. The majority of the funding requested will be used for programmatic work in Zanzibar and mainland Tanzania. The remaining funding will support global and country staff time for abortion-related content and advocacy that cannot be covered by other unrestricted funds due to U.S. government funding restrictions. This grant is aligned with the Global Reproductive Equity strategy. (Strategy: Global Reproductive Equity)
for support of equity in global sexual and reproductive health and rights organizations
This grant to EngenderHealth will support the TIME Initiative, a consortium of CEOs of global sexual and reproductive health organizations to work together towards a more equitable institutional vision of the field and their roles in it. Through an inclusive and consultative planning process, this grant will lay out a future set of engagements for the field to envision an evolved role for international non-governmental organizations in sexual and reproductive health and rights. This is the second phase of work of this group. (Strategy: Global Reproductive Equity)
