Description
1) Objective
The High Commission of Canada to Jamaica is pleased to launch its annual call for proposals for the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI). The Canada Fund is a program supporting small-scale, high-impact projects in developing countries, which 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 Canadian 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 endeavors.
The HCC is leveraging CFLI to support Jamaican organizations that provide services to communities and individuals most at risk. Priority areas will include:
- Democracy and inclusive governance, human rights and the rule of law.
- Peace and security, with a focus on crime prevention and building peace.
- 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.
- Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.
2) Eligibility
Eligible applicants are: (1) local non-governmental, community and not-for-profit organisations; (2) local academic institutions working on local projects; (3) international, intergovernmental, multilateral and regional institutions, organisations and agencies working on local development activities; (4) municipal, regional or national government institutions or agencies of the recipient country working on local projects; and (5) Canadian non-governmental and not-for-profit organisations that are working on local development activities.
3) Location
Actions must take place in Jamaica.
4) Budget
The average CFLI contribution for local projects is $10,000 to $25,000 Canadian Dollars.
