Call summary :
CRAF’d finances, connects and reimagines the data that saves lives. The international community allocates over $30 billion annually for crisis action in fragile and crisis-affected settings. In the face of escalating challenges, data-driven approaches are vital for improving crisis response.
This CRAF’d Open Call for Proposals aims to address the scarcity of risk data in these settings, equipping crisis actors with actionable insights. The goal is to generate vital risk data sets, particularly relating to major risk events and their impact on affected communities. With its investments, CRAF’d enables international partners to anticipate, prevent and respond to crises more effectively, safeguarding the lives and livelihoods of vulnerable individuals.
WE ARE SEEKING
PRIMARY DATA SETS
- Population & demographics
- Conflict & violence
- Weather & climate
- Public health & diseases
- Food & nutrition
- Geography & infrastructure
- Gender, incl. Women, Peace, and Security
COMPOSITE DATA SETS
Data sets that provide comprehensive and reliable multi-hazard information. These data sets can combine data from various sectors, geographic locations, and sources to create a nuanced composite view on complex risks events and/or affected populations.
WHO CAN APPLY
UN organizations that signed the CRAF’d Memorandum of Understanding and Non-UN organizations (NUNOs) are eligible to apply to the Open Call.
NUNOs can access CRAF’d funding either through a managing agent (UN entity that has signed the CRAF’d MoU), or through the CRAF’d direct access modality, as outlined in the CRAF’d Terms of Reference.
STRATEGIC FOCUS
The strategic focus for this Open Call is to prioritize projects that provide essential risk data sets as a public good. To this end, projects must demonstrate how they contribute to the following key strategic objectives:
o Securing essential risk data sets: CRAF’d is committed to securing essential risk data sets as a public good so that everyone, everywhere, can discover, access, integrate and share the data they need. The data sets must play a critical role in improving crisis anticipation, prevention, and response efforts in fragile and crisis-affected settings.
o Supporting decision-making, programming, and resource allocation: CRAF’d-supported data sets must demonstrate they have an impact on resource allocation, decision-making and programming that reaches people in fragile and crisis-affected settings earlier, faster, and in a more targeted and dignified way.
o Working across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus: CRAF’d invests in data sets that can be leveraged by stakeholders across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus to comprehensively address complex risks.
o Fostering sustainable connections and collaboration: CRAF’d strongly encourages joint applications from multiple organizations and partnerships with other organizations in the CRAF’d ecosystem. Collaboration with local organizations is particularly desirable.
o Enabling impact at scale: CRAF’d seeks to invest in data sets that are either already widely used or address under-researched areas.
FUNDING
o Available funding: USD 3 million
o Minimum grant size: USD 250,000
