Description
1) Objective
The GoodPlanet Foundation aims to support projects that address significant environmental challenges while simultaneously reducing socio-economic inequalities. Through its funding initiatives, the Foundation focuses on three key areas: promoting agroecology and agroforestry, providing access to essential goods and services such as water and sustainable energy, and conserving marine and coastal ecosystems. Projects funded by the Foundation must align with these thematic priorities and demonstrate a clear impact on both the environment and society. With a focus on sustainability and social equity, the Foundation seeks to empower communities and foster positive change on a global scale.
Some of their carbon finance projects are coming to an end. They would like to renew our project portfolio to support and assist new projects for access to renewable and sustainable energy and energy efficiency supported by carbon finance.
- Case n°1: Projects of up to 19,999 tonnes of CO2 equivalent avoided per year, which integrate the GoodPlanet project portfolio, supported by annual carbon finance from several financiers.
- Case n°2: Projects exceeding 20,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent avoided per year, subject to pre-financing from a single donor, with multi-year funding acquired.
2) Eligibility
Project selection is open to non-governmental organisations, companies from the social and solidarity economy, associations, foundations, etc. The GoodPlanet Foundation does not support for-profit projects with no socio-economic benefits for disadvantaged populations. Project leaders must have proven experienced in project management and in the environmental sector. The GoodPlanet Foundation accepts applications from French and foreign organisations.
3) Location
Actions can take place in various countries worldwide.
4) Budget
Projects funded by the GoodPlanet Foundation typically receive between €40,000 and €60,000 per year, with a duration of 2 to 5 years. Joint financing is accepted, but projects must require a minimum 30% contribution from the Foundation.
5) Application
Interested parties can submit their project proposals through the Foundation’s website on a rolling basis. Projects should align with the Foundation’s thematic priorities and include all required supporting documents.
