Grant Description: These guidelines are issued specifically for proposals for assistance to Iraqi returnees/refugees and non-Iraqi refugees inside Iraq. OVERVIEW: Proposals must be received by PRM by April 14, 2006. Applicants are encouraged to submit their proposals as soon as possible. BACKGROUND: Some 250,000 Iraqis have voluntarily returned, mostly spontaneously, since 2003. UNHCR estimates that up to 100,000 new returns are possible in 2006. Over 70,000 non-Iraqi refugees reside in Iraq. Estimates indicate that at least 600,000 Iraqis reside in Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Turkey under Temporary Protective Regimes (TRP) that are intended to provide some humanitarian assistance and to protect refugees and persons living in refugee-like situations against refoulement. Assistance to the populations mentioned above is needed to mitigate the demand these populations are making on public health and education services in their host communities. PROPOSAL FOCUS AND GUIDANCE: NGO programs should anchor returnees in Iraq, enable communities to support returnees, and assist local communities and NGOs to build capacity to absorb additional returnees. PRM will consider proposals that provide assistance and protection to non-Iraqi refugees in Iraq until an appropriate durable solution can be found for these populations, as well as proposals that provide assistance to Iraqis living under TPR in neighboring countries. Proposals must present evidence of coordination with UNHCR and other international organizations and relevant host government(s). Proposals must illustrate organizations ability to achieve program objectives given the current level of insecurity, and how the program will respond to possible deterioration of the security situation.
