How Financial Support is Evaluated
Requests for support will be assessed based on:
The applicant’s potential contribution to the Forum’s objectives
The relevance of their affiliated entity
The type of financial support requested
Please note that the maximum amount of financial support received by an ALF member will depend on the total number of successful applications received.
Due to the limited financial resources available, and in line with the Foundation’s belief in shared responsibility, the ALF approaches this call with a principle of co-responsibility, ensuring that the available support reaches those who need it most while encouraging broader engagement. We therefore kindly ask applicants to consider what costs they or their organisations can realistically cover, before requesting financial support. This collaborative approach allows us to extend the opportunity to a more diverse and inclusive range of participants across the region.
