The Nordic Climate Facility (NCF) launched on Monday the Third Call for
Proposals on "Innovative low-cost climate solutions with a focus on
local business development in eligible developing countries." The
deadline for submitting proposals is 16 January 2012.
The aim of the Nordic Climate Facility (NCF) is
to promote the transfer of technology, know-how and innovative ideas
between the Nordic countries and low-income countries facing climate
change challenges. The main goal is to bolster the capabilities of
low-income countries to mitigate and adapt to climate change challenges
and implement sustainable development measures which will lead to the
reduction of poverty.
Grant financing of up to EUR 500 000 can be granted to partnerships between relevant Nordic (i.e. Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway and Iceland) institutions, organisations, companies, authorities and qualified local Partners in low-income countries.
Countries eligible for the grant financing programme include: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda, Senegal, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe; Bangladesh, Cambodia, Kyrgyz Republic, Lao PDR, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Vietnam; Bolivia, Honduras and Nicaragua.
NCF is financed by the Nordic Development Fund (NDF) and implemented jointly with NEFCO. The total budget for the Third Call is EUR 6 million.
The Second Call, with an emphasis on renewable energy and urban adaptation to climate change, was launched in October 2010 and attracted 176 proposals, 12 of which were approved for funding.
