APA Small Grants program - from strength to strength
The APA Small Grants Project has recently completed its 7th cycle of funding and with its completion, comes some interesting lessons learnt, some new challenges identified and offers a valuable insight into what translating the ICPD Agenda into country level programs in 2009 means in the Asia Pacific Region. The APA Small Grants program is one of the major components of the core work of the Asia Pacific Alliance and has operated as such since APAs inception in 1999. The grants program is supported by funds provided by The David and Lucile Packard Foundation and each country is provided with USD 25,000 to carry out activities that support APAs core objectives.
