The National Endowment for Democracy is now seeking proposals for projects that advance democratic goals and strengthen democratic institutions.

Independent media organizations, civic groups and associations can apply. Applications from organizations working in newly established democracies, semi-authoritarian countries, highly repressive societies and countries undergoing democratic transition are encouraged.

The available grants vary depending on the size and scope of project proposals, but the average grant lasts 12 months and offers $50,000 USD.

Proposals are encouraged to promote and defend human rights and the rule of law, support freedom of information and independent media, and promote accountability and transparency.
