IDEA training and support on Irish Aid DE grants

As in previous years, IDEA will provide support for members and spaces for members to support one another in applying for these grants. This year we are also opening our training to any other actors who are not yet members of IDEA and this training is free of charge to all.

  • Our first training event is an Annual Grants Clinic , facilitated by IDEA staff and focusing on the application form itself. This will also include an introduction to Results Frameworks by Susan Gallwey, particularly relevant for those who are new to the process. This runs on Tuesday, 3 November from 11am – 1pm, via Zoom.
  • Our second training is our annual  workshop on Results Frameworks  for Development Education led by Susan Gallwey.  This is focused more on supporting those who are familiar with Results Frameworks and have begun work on the RF for their applicatin. We encourage everyone to bring along their previous year's RF (where available) and any work done on this year's version.   This runs on Tuesday, 10 November from 2pm – 4pm, via Zoom.
  • Furthermore, we are available for specific queries via phone and email on the Annual Grants process,

IDEA is looking for a video production company/ animator for an upcoming video project. We have funding available to create a short animated educational video resource for members as part of The Code of Good Practice. The video will help viewers understand what quality GCE is and why it matters in the world today. The intended audience for the video are people who are connected to the Code of Good Practice and GCE in their work but not yet very familiar with it e.g. non-GCE staff in member organisations, board members of member organisations, teachers, youth workers, European partners, new members to the Code and new staff to IDEA member organisations. Please submit your CV and a short letter of interest outlining a proposal for the video (including the number of days you envisage and the fee) to code@ideaonline.ie. The deadline for application is now extended to 06 August, 05pm. Click here for the full terms of reference.
