About Fondation Pro Victimis

Fondation Pro Victimis supports organizations serving people affected by disasters and severe human rights abuses, with a strong emphasis on restoring dignity and protecting highly vulnerable populations. Its grants appear to focus on practical, rights-based interventions in Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Nepal, especially where disability inclusion, survivor protection, and post-crisis recovery overlap. The grantee mix suggests interest in women and girls, marginalized communities, and accessible, locally grounded services that improve autonomy and resilience.

Giving Approach

Unrestricted project grants to non-profits; applications are accepted year-round with no fixed public deadline. Funding is program-specific and appears to support targeted projects in a small set of countries, likely with a selective review and shortlist process rather than an open competitive cycle.
