The Embassy of Canada in Harare is pleased to launch its annual call for proposals for the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) for Zimbabwe, Botswana and Angola.
Thematic Priorities
- All projects must align with at least one of the following CFLI thematic priorities:
- Inclusive governance, including diversity and LGBTQ2, democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
- Growth that works for everyone, including women’s economic rights, decent jobs and entrepreneurship, investing in the poorest and most vulnerable, and safeguarding economic gains.
Funding Information
- The CFLI contribution can be up to USD $45,000.00.
Eligibility Criteria
- Eligible recipients include:
- Local non-governmental, community and not-for-profit organizations,
- Local academic institutions working on local projects,
- International non-governmental organizations working on local development activities,
- Intergovernmental, multilateral and regional institutions, organizations and agencies working on local development activities,
- Municipal, regional or national government institutions or agencies of the recipient country working on local projects, and
- Canadian non-governmental and not-for-profit organizations that are working on local development activities.
- The majority of CFLI funding is to be directed toward local civil society organizations (including non-governmental organizations) and other institutions working at the local level. Other entities, such as international, intergovernmental, multilateral and regional organizations may be eligible for funding, provided they are working with local partners and on local projects that are consistent with the objectives of the CFLI. Similarly, municipal, regional and national government institutions may receive funding, provided that their projects are essentially local in nature. The CFLI is always looking to fund innovative projects that deliver measurable results.
