Recent grants

This page shows our civil society responsive grants awarded since June 2006. Later in the year, information on our Commonwealth Association annual grants will also be available.

Our grants are awarded on a quarterly basis. The information will be updated quarterly, after each round of awards.

The region and country information indicates the location of the activity our grant has funded.

The list of grants can be filtered using single or multiple criteria, for example you might display all grants awarded to Asia, or all grants related to health awarded to Ghana in 2009.

Filters are added by selecting from the drop-down lists. Start a new search by clicking "clear".
