Call for Applications: Open Society Initiative for Eastern Africa

OSIEA occupies a unique niche as a donor organization in Eastern Africa—its multiple identities as local/international, donor/implementer, outsider/insider give the organization enormous flexibility and reach in terms of access and impact. We join processes that are consultative and participatory. Our ability to be flexible in our funding criteria allows us to respond quickly to changing situations. We add our own voice to debates and are not shy to take on rights issues that are deemed as politically sensitive or controversial. 

We support local, daring initiatives with the passion and demonstrated capacity to positively transform society in innovative ways that embrace integrity, inclusiveness and diversity.

OSIEA supports projects in the following programmatic areas:

• Media and Access to Information
• Governance and Accountability
• Health and Rights
• Justice and Human Rights
• Regional Programs
