This program funds digital equity activities for Native Entities, including Indian Tribes, Alaska Native entities, and Native Hawaiian organizations. It is intended to reduce administrative burden by using a single application process for two digital equity grant programs authorized under the Digital Equity Act of 2021. The expected outcome is improved digital equity capacity among eligible Native Entities.
Go / No-Go Memo
This opportunity is worth monitoring, but needs more validation before proposal effort.
Watch
The opportunity is a U.S. digital equity grant for Native Entities, not a humanitarian, health, or disaster-response program. Eligibility is limited to Indian Tribes, Alaska Native entities, and Native Hawaiian organizations, so there is no clear participation pathway for IFRC or National Societies.
Strategic fit
moderate
Government is the strongest profile match at 50/100; relevance is 15/100.
Eligibility risk
strong
Eligible applicant types include Governments, NGOs.
Deadline feasibility
moderate
The call closes in 7 days, so proposal capacity is the main constraint.
Funding attractiveness
unknown
The funding amount is not available in the datasource.
Partnership need
moderate
This may be stronger with a Government lead or co-applicant based on fit scores.
Recommended next action

NTIA is soliciting applications for the Native Entities Grant Program (“Program”), authorized by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, Division F, Title III, Public Law 117-58, 135 Stat. 429, 1209 (November 15, 2021) (codified at 47 U.S.C. §1701, 1721, et seq.) (the “Digital Equity Act of 2021” or “Act”). The Act authorizes two programs that set aside funds for Indian Tribes, Alaska Native entities, and Native Hawaiian organizations (collectively “Native Entities”): the “State Digital Equity Capacity Grant Program” and the “Digital Equity Competitive Grant Program.” To reduce administrative burden and cost, NTIA is releasing the funds for both programs through a single application process. Applicants should visit BroadbandUSA to download the NEGP-specific application forms in addition to those standard forms available for download on grants.gov.
This opportunity supports research under a European partnership focused on rescuing biodiversity and understanding novel ecosystems, including their biodiversity, socio-ecological consequences, and future trajectories. It is aimed at research and partnership actors contributing to biodiversity-related knowledge generation and future-oriented analysis.
The call is a European research partnership on biodiversity and novel ecosystems, with no substantive evidence of humanitarian, health, or Movement-relevant programming. Eligibility details are not provided, so realistic IFRC or National Society participation cannot be confirmed and relevance remains low.
This opportunity supports the Water4All European Partnership through a Joint Transnational Call on sustainable water management. It is aimed at participants in transnational research and innovation activities related to water security. The expected outcome is improved sustainable management of water resources.
The call is thematically relevant to water security and sustainable water management, but the authoritative source provides no eligibility details or implementation structure, so realistic Movement participation cannot be confirmed. This appears to be a research-oriented Horizon Europe partnership call, which limits immediate operational relevance for IFRC and National Societies.
This opportunity funds interregional innovation investments under the EU I3 Instrument, supporting consortia to bring mature innovations to scale-up and commercialisation. It is aimed at innovation actors, especially companies and SMEs, working across regional ecosystems and value chains, with the expected outcome of stronger EU competitiveness, resilience, and market uptake of new solutions.
This is an EU interregional innovation grant focused on companies, SMEs, and regional innovation ecosystems rather than humanitarian or Movement programming. The source does not provide a clear participation pathway for IFRC or National Societies, so relevance is low for the Movement.
