All projects must align with at least one of the following CFLI thematic priorities:
- Inclusive governance, including diversity and 2SLGBTQI+, democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
- Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, emphasizing women’s economic rights, entrepreneurship, and combatting gender-based violence.
