International Small Grants Programme: review

An independent review of the Scottish Government's International Small Grants Programme conducted from January to June 2020.

The Scottish Government’s Small Grants Programme was established in 2013 to help grow the international development sector in Scotland to better support some of the world’s most vulnerable communities. The Programme provides funding for smaller Scottish based organisations to deliver work which enhances Scotland’s contribution to the fight against poverty, with a focus on countries which are the Scottish Government’s international development priorities.

The Small Grants Programme was initially developed as a pilot programme. The first phase of the pilot operated from 2014 to 2016. The Scottish Government made a commitment to extend the pilot in 2016 and a second phase of the pilot was delivered from 2017-2019. The Programme has been managed by the Corra Foundation over both phases.

The Scottish Government made a commitment to review the Small Grants Programme, and in December 2019 commissioned Arrivo Consulting Ltd with Philippa Bonella to carry out the review.
