FCRA PROJECT: THE ASIA FOUNDATION GRANTS
Deadline: 31.12.2014
he Asia Foundation
undertakes grant making with organizations as a collaborative process of
problem identification and strategic planning within our areas of programming
interest. Our programs address critical issues affecting Asia in the 21st
century—governance and law, economic development, women's empowerment,
environment, and regional cooperation. In addition, our Books for Asia and
professional exchange programs are among the ways we encourage Asia's continued
development as a peaceful, just, and thriving region of the world. Please
review our country programs highlights and current Project Lists to see if your
project falls within the scope of the Foundation's current programs.
The Foundation
directs its support to activities that are within its current interests and are
likely to have a wide effect. Most of the Foundation's grants are made to
organizations in Asia. The Foundation does not make grants to
individuals nor to U.S-based organizations.

If it does, Foundation staff may ask the grant seeker to submit a formal proposal and/or raise questions for clarification of purposed project. There is no grant application form.
