Darwin Initiative
Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs
The Darwin Initiative is the UK’s flagship international challenge fund for biodiversity conversation and poverty reduction, established at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992. The Darwin Initiative is a grant scheme working on projects that aim to slow, halt, or reverse the rates of biodiversity loss and degradation, with associated reductions in multidimensional poverty. To date, the Darwin Initiative has awarded more than £195m to over 1,280 projects in 159 countries to enhance the capability and capacity of national and local stakeholders to deliver biodiversity conservation and multidimensional poverty reduction outcomes in low and middle-income countries. More information at https://www.gov.uk/government/groups/the-darwin-initiative. This page contains information about Rounds 27 onwards. For information about Rounds 1 to 26, please see the Darwin Initiative website -https://www.darwininitiative.org.uk/
Lebanon Humanitarian Programme
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
The Lebanon Humanitarian Programme has three main objectives: i) address growing humanitarian needs across the country; ii) improve educational outcomes for the most vulnerable and marginalised out of school children in Lebanon; and iii) support more inclusive, sustainable, and accountable support systems for all vulnerable population groups. The LHP will provide critical and flexible humanitarian assistance to households across Lebanon, according to vulnerability rather than nationality. Recognising the need to ensure sustainability, the programme will also take a patient development approach as far as possible: providing technical assistance to support national systems and improve the efficiency of aid delivery.
Promoting Equalities Regional Programme (PEP-Regional)
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
The programme will build capabilities on gender and equalities through scaling up provision of practical advice, technical expertise, and support to posts and regions. The programme will strengthen bridges between posts and central teams, sharing evidence, lessons and best practice. It will support posts to identify and act on opportunities through policy, ODA programmes, and diplomacy to meet our raised ambition. Posts will be better able to navigate available FCDO resources, including centres of expertise and Helpdesk facilities, including those covering disability, violence against women and girls and LGBT+ rights. By bringing together UK influence, investment, expertise and evidence, this programme will strengthen progress on tackling gender and equalities and bring about wider benefits through investing in people and in capabilities. The programme will be delivered predominantly through additional regional gender and equality advisory roles.
