How to submit bids
We invite project proposals for activity within the specified time frames. Proposals will need to identify a clear and complete set of objectives and relevant activities, with activity-based budget. Project proposals must have a clear purpose supported by achievable and measurable outputs (e.g. events and reports) and outcomes (i.e. what the project aims to help address through its activity). The project costs can be in Kyrgyz soms/US dollars, but must give the equivalent value in pounds sterling.
Prepare the Concept Note of your proposal on your own template in Word in English and email it to the British Embassy in Bishkek at UKin.KyrgyzRepublic@fcdo.gov.uk by midnight Kyrgyzstan time on 30 August 2024. Mention ‘SPP: Project bid and name of your organisation’ in the subject field. Incomplete submissions will not be accepted.
Note that bidding is competitive and only selected projects will receive funding. The Embassy reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids without incurring any obligation to inform the affected applicant/s of the grounds of such acceptance or rejection. Due to the volume of bids expected we will not be able to provide feedback on unsuccessful bids.
