Prosperity Fund bidding round 2014-2015 is open

About the Fund
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office wants to help to create the right conditions to support global growth. We work for transparency and a strong, rules-based international economic system. We work for a low carbon economy and resilient energy markets and we promote science and innovation as solutions to global challenges. We promote Britain as an international partner of choice. We support British companies win new business, promote education and innovation as drivers of growth. The FCO delivers these through number of strategic funds and programmes such as the Prosperity Fund. The purpose of the FCO’s Prosperity Fund is to contribute towards policy goal of creating the conditions for global growth. Turkey is one of the FCO’s priority countries and regions. We aim to develop projects under three main strands:
• Open Economy - Working for a transparent and strong rules-based international economic system;
• Energy Security & Efficiency - Working for resilient energy markets and better functioning of global energy markets;
• Climate Change – Helping to create a low carbon economy, and promoting science and innovation as solutions to global challenges;

Project goals
Projects should demonstrate:
• They are practical and have high-impact activity that will lead to a real and timely transformation in terms of high-level policy and action on the ground.
• Proposals focusing purely on research, analysis, seminars or workshops will not be relevant unless they lead to specific and measurable action.
• They will trigger further incremental action and improve results out of proportion to the money the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) spends e.g. by securing funding from co-donors
• They are adding value to, and not duplicating, other donor activity in the sector and/or country.
• Host governments have been consulted and are supportive; if they have not, the bid should provide evidence on how the project has sufficient buy-in from the necessary stakeholders to achieve the expected outcomes. Working with governments and official bodies is more likely to result in high impact, transformative outcomes which outlive the duration of the project; partners can include business and non-government offices where their influence can bring around policy change.
• Projects can be at regional or state level within a country, provided that the ability to replicate is built into the proposal and sufficient impact is likely.
• Proposals should outline the affect and the changes the project will make.
• Proposals should include any publicity, dissemination and outreach activities in the budget from the outset; any media work should be directly related to the project proposal, but any paid-for marketing work needs to seek exemption from the Marketing and Advertising Freeze.
• Implementers’ management and administrative costs should be no more than 10% of the overall budget.
• Projects should be based in pounds sterling so that the implementer carries the exchange rate risk; there are no project funds to manage this risk.
• The FCO places a strong emphasis on programme and project-level evaluation: project-implementing organisations must submit quarterly progress reports for the duration of the project, and a project completion form within three months of the project conclusion.
