The WIN DRR Leadership Awards celebrate and recognize women's achievements in DRR across the Asia-Pacific region. The awards are part of the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) flagship women's leadership initiative, WIN DRR, supported by the Government of Australia.
WIN DRR aims to empower women and strengthen their role in decision-making in DRR by promoting and supporting women’s leadership across the Asia-Pacific region. The awards support implementation of the Sendai GAP, which calls for the meaningful participation and leadership of women in DRR governance and decision-making.
The 2026 WIN DRR Leadership Awards will be presented in an online ceremony on 13 October 2026 as part of the observance of the International Day for DRR, held this year under the theme “Resilience Starts at Home. ” The theme resonates strongly with the awards.
Women are often the primary builders of resilience at household and community level, yet they remain underrepresented in formal decision-making structures shaping DRR policy and investment. The WIN DRR Leadership Awards celebrate women who are helping bridge this gap — from resilience that starts at home to leadership that shapes systems.

Buried in the §200.340 termination provisions of the May 29 Uniform Grants Regulation rewrite is a fundamental restructuring of federal grant termination law. The new rule explicitly models grant termination on the Federal Acquisition Regulation's termination-for-convenience framework — agencies may terminate when termination is in the agency's interest, when an award no longer advances agency priorities, or when the national interest as it exists at the time of termination has shifted. Unlike federal contracts, the rule eliminates the objection, hearing, and appeal rights that have historically attached to termination decisions, and unlike federal contracts, it does not import the FAR's termination settlement framework. Multiyear grant recipients now bear contract-level cancellation risk without contract-level settlement protection.

Applications are due September 1, 2026. The catch that will decide who wins: this is not a police grant, a prosecutor grant, or a behavioral-health grant. It is a single citywide proposal that has to braid all of them together. Here is who is eligible, what the money actually funds, and how a mayor's office should build a proposal that survives DOJ review.
