Description
1) Objective
The Embassy of Canada to Brazil is pleased to launch its annual call for proposals for the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI). The CFLI is a program designed to support small-scale, high-impact projects in developing countries that align with Global Affairs Canada’s thematic priority areas for engagement. The program is directed at projects conceived and designed predominantly by local partners. Projects are selected and approved by the relevant Canadian embassy or high commission. The CFLI also serves to support positive bilateral relations between Canada and recipient countries and their civil societies by deepening contacts and supporting local endeavours.
All projects must produce concrete, tangible and lasting results and be aligned with at least one of the following CFLI thematic priorities:
- Environment and climate action with a focus on adaptation and mitigation as well as water management.
- Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, including marginalized groups and those victims of discrimination such as black, brown, indigenous, quilombolas, LGBTQIA+, refugee and migrant communities.
- For the 2025-2026 period, the CFLI – Brazil especially welcomes projects in the north and northeast regions of Brazil.
