Description
1) Objective
The Kiwa Initiative launches a news call for regional projects. This call for regional projects aims to implement NbS projects for climate change adaptation in the Pacific while mainstreaming gender equality and a human-rights-based approach. It focuses on:
- Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) that tackle climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation.
- Gender equality, disability, and social inclusion (GEDSI) to ensure the inclusion of vulnerable populations, particularly women and youth, and to reduce existing inequalities.
Regional projects must include a relevant regional cooperation dimension between countries and/or territories (pooling, capitalization, sharing), whether they are implemented in French territories and/or other eligible Pacific countries. A regional project must involve at least two countries and/or territories. Alignment with regional, national, and local policy frameworks must be clearly demonstrated. For this 2024 Call for regional projects, particular attention will be paid to projects submitted by national authorities and/or directly involving national authorities in the project implementation.
2) Eligibility

3) Location
Actions must take place in Federated States of Micronesia – Fiji – French Polynesia – Kiribati – Nauru – New Caledonia – Niue – Marshall Islands – Palau – Papua New Guinea – Solomon Islands – Samoa – Timor-Leste – Tokelau – Tonga – Tuvalu – Vanuatu – Wallis-and-Futuna.
4) Budget
Regional projects must involve at least two of the 18 eligible countries and/or territories, with a budget ranging from €1,500,000-€5,000,000. The project implementation period may not exceed three and half years (3,5 years), with an indicative starting date estimated by early 2026. The project implementation period cannot end later than mid-2029.
