Climate Skills Global Collaboration Grants 2025

Description

1) Objective

In October, the British Council will be launching the Climate Skills Global Collaboration Grants 2025. Part of the Climate Skills programme, the call will offer grants up to £85,000 for partnerships between the UK and Brazil, India, Indonesia, Mexico, and Viet Nam. The grants will support the delivery of youth green entrepreneurship training and capacity strengthening activities developing international connections between the UK and Brazil, Mexico, India, Indonesia and Viet Nam.

Funding can be used to establish new collaborations, or develop existing links, between higher education institutions, TVET institutions, training providers and non-governmental organisations, with the potential for longer-term sustainability. The grants should enable young people both in the UK and the partner country to undertake green entrepreneurship and green work training. Organisations from the UK and one other Climate Skills delivery country will be required to submit a joint application. Each collaboration should support capacity strengthening of each partner organisation, while stimulating longer-term interactions between the two countries.

2) Eligibility

The call will accept joint proposals from one lead UK institution and one lead partner country institution.

3) Location

Actions must take place in UK and Brazil, Mexico, India, Indonesia and Viet Nam.

4) Budget

Grant amount: the combined total budget available for each partnership is up to £85,000.
