FOUNDATION FOR DEMOCRATIC INITIATIVES
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Based on a management proposal, each year, FDI Board of Directors approves the composition and the number of Grant Review Committees.
The FDI board also reviews and agrees grants processes, procedures and policies.
The Grant Review Committee (GRC) is authorized by the FDI Board as the main authority to decide on grants. However, in cases when an applicant makes an official complaint regarding a grant decision of the GRC, the FDI Board will review the GRC decision.
All GRC members must sign the Conflict of Interest Policy document in order to ensure the transparency and openness in decision making process.
Additionally, it is the responsibility of every member to reveal - in advance of a meeting -if they have a conflict of interest relating to a particular applicant.
The Board has the authority to review the overall process of grant making including the work of the GRC and to take decisions regarding changes in grants approval policies and procedures.
If the GRC becomes aware of significant information regarding an approved grant or grantee, information which, if known earlier, might have influenced the decision taken, this information must be provided to the Board without delay, with a request for re-evaluation for that specific project or applicant.
In those cases in which final grant decisions are to be taken outside of FDI (USAID and other donors, FDI board), the Executive Director or/and the deputy director will prepare summaries (assisted by the responsible Program Manager) based on the GRC recommendations.
