The Millennium Challenge Account-Kosovo has received financing from the Millennium Challenge
Corporation toward the cost of the JETA project and its Inclusive Energy Sector Workforce Activity
(IESWA) implemented by Tetra Tech and intends to apply part of the proceeds towards grant funded
activities under Energy for Equality Grants Program. 1  
MCA-Kosovo invites Concept Notes from eligible proposers for activities which promote gender
equitable practices among energy and adjacent sector employers and/or provide technical assistance to
help increase the representation of women and women from ethnic minority communities in energy
companies in Kosovo, and/or support networking, mentoring, and other educational and learning
opportunities for women. The final aim is to increase women’s employment, retention, and promotion
in the energy and adjacent sector workforce.  
The MCA-Entity has determined that Two-Step Concept Note/RFA is the best procedure for the funding
disbursement and will expect Grantees to administer grant funding based on the MCC Program Grant
