To help groups with little or no resources organize a Tibet Lobby Day, the International Tibet Network is offering Member groups the opportunity to apply for a Tibet Lobby Day Small Grant of up to $500.

The application process couldn’t be easier; simply email campaigns@tibetnetwork.org with the following information before 31 January:

i. Your name, address and contact details. We encourage you to work as in coalition with other groups in your country and to make a joint application, in which case please include all Tibet Groups’ names.

ii. A description of the intended use of the grant (maximum one page). Bullet points can be used.

iii. A paragraph detailing the expected outcomes of the Lobby Day, quantified as far as possible, eg number of parliamentarians contacted, number of supporters involved etc. Bullet points may be used.

iv. A budget of costs for your Tibet Lobby Day.

APPLICATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE END OF JANUARY.

NOTE: Priority will be given to Network Member organizations that have paid their 2012 and 2013 Membership Fees.
