The Online Marketplace serves as a dynamic platform and repository for collaborative project proposals from Alliance members. It connects donors with impactful initiatives that advance our shared vision of ending statelessness.
By sharing a project snapshot, organizations can present their ideas to potential partners and donors before developing full proposals – enhancing visibility, collaboration, and opportunities for support.
We invite eligible Global Alliance members to submit project snapshots that align with the Marketplace’s criteria outlined in the Call for Submissions and Online Marketplace Terms of Reference.
Submissions can be made either:
- Online via the Global Alliance website, or
- Offline using the attached template, emailed with the subject line Online Marketplace Snapshot – [Name of your organization] to the Secretariat at [email protected].
Deadline: 1 November 2025
Please note that inclusion in the Online Marketplace does not imply endorsement or guarantee funding; it serves to promote visibility and potential donor engagement.
For any questions, please contact the Global Alliance Secretariat at [email protected].
We look forward to your submissions and continued collaboration to strengthen global efforts to end statelessness.
