Civil society organisations working to advance sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) now have an exciting opportunity to secure major funding through the 2026 AmplifyChange Strengthening Grants programme. Applications are officially open from 21 May to 16 June 2026, offering grants between £100,000 and £200,000 for projects lasting 24 to 36 months.
This funding opportunity is designed to support small to medium-sized civil society organisations seeking to strengthen their advocacy work, expand organisational capacity, and drive sustainable change in SRHR policies, services, and social norms.
What Are the AmplifyChange Strengthening Grants?
The AmplifyChange Strengthening Grants support advocacy initiatives focused on improving access to sexual and reproductive health and rights. A unique feature of this funding is that up to 40% of the grant can be used for organisational development and strengthening institutional effectiveness.
The programme aims to empower organisations that are working to influence policies, improve services, reduce stigma, and promote inclusive SRHR systems, particularly for marginalised and underserved populations.
