DFID's Development Innovation Fund: An Opportunity for Small NGOs
For those small NGOs who think that it is impossible to access funding from international bilateral agencies, here is something that can change their mind. The UK's Department for International Development (DFID) has launched the Development Innovation Fund (DIF) specially "aimed at community based organisations involved in providing specific small scale, one-off support that directly targets poverty in the developing world and includes a significant development awareness component in the UK." No doubt, DFID has always considered that partnership with civil society organizations is critical to reduce global poverty.
