Context
One of the modern forms of slavery that human society faces today is human trafficking in person for sexual exploitation. It is mostly women and girls from the vulnerable communities have become victims of human trafficking. India is neither new to this, as many countries in the world. In that regard, NCT intends to address this ongoing issue through its awareness raising project. This project aims to create awareness among truck drivers and train truck drivers on how to find out traffickers and victims. NCT's objective, not only to rehabilitate the victims of human trafficking but also to prevent human trafficking at the grassroots level, will be accomplished with the help of the truckers. To that end, we intend to submit grant application to support the implementation of this project and are seeking the support of Online Volunteers to helps us with strategy and design the project approach so that we can achieve the intended goal.
Task description
We are looking for a few professional grant-writing online volunteers who can help us write a grant application to engage truck drivers against human trafficking. We will share a set of questionnaires with the selected online volunteers and provide proper guidance on the purpose, objectives and what we intend to achieve through this project. The length of the application would be less than 15 pages on a usual A4 paper size. We would appreciate hearing from online volunteers with prior experience working with trafficked victims and rehabilitations.
