The UK Aid Direct team has been notified of a course designed for organisations considering applying for a UK Aid Direct grant and other DFID-related funds.
The course is entitled: DFID essentials: funding mechanisms, policies and priorities.
Run by BOND – the UK membership body for non-governmental organisations (NGOs) working in international development – the course will be held on 3 days in London:

- Describe the range of funding mechanisms DFID offers and where to find out about these
- Compare different funds and identify those your organisation could apply for
