In 2022, Voice hit a new milestone in its grant making reaching a cumulative total of 631 grants versus the planned total of 629, over its 8-year implementation period! Through the upheavals wrought to the civic space brought by the pandemic, Voice has continued to find inspiration, direction and relevance in supporting rightsholder-led organising in Asia and Africa. This year the Voice team focused its efforts on making grant approvals, releasing 33 calls for proposals and awarding 106 grant contracts. Of these only one contract was awarded as a multi-country grant to the Linking Learning Facilitator organisation. Alongside grant ap- provals, all teams continued to facilitate the closure of phase 1 projects. In 2022, we have officially closed 399 projects in the system. We continue to face challenges in closing projects in Indonesia, Philippines, and Nigeria. These are the team with the largest grants portfolio in Voice both in terms of the number of grantee partners
As of December 2022, over EUR 55.2 million have been allocated to Voice grantee partners from all funding sources, meaning a 91% allocation of the total grant budget which stands at EUR 61 million. Seen distributed over the various grant types and country/multi-country portfolio, we see that Influencing grants and Innovate and Learn grants have seen the highest volume of grant budget allocation. Even though Empowerment grants come in at third place in terms of grant budget volume, Voice has awarded the highest number of contracts, a total of 251 to empowerment grantee partners. Thus, in terms of contracting, Empowerment grants make up one-third of the total projects underscoring the impor- tance of supporting local, emergent, rightsholder-led initiatives
