Climate Challenge Innovation Fund for National RC/RC Societies in PfCC 1 or PfCC 2

Climate Challenge Innovation Fund for National RC/RC Societies in PfCC 1/ PfCC 2

This year the ‘Climate Challenge Innovations Fund” has been set up for small scale climate- related initiatives of National Societies. The majority of climate-related action plans should be implemented through integration into existing programmes with support from regular and newly found climate change related donors, however with this fund the Climate Centre provides a small opportunity to start implementing a few new and innovative activities to address the newly identified changing risks right away. The idea is for particularly innovative ideas to be learnt from and spread rapidly through out the Red Cross/Red Crescent. Projects selected will need to be open to documentation and sharing.
 
The small funds will cover climate-related micro projects with calls for proposals open to countries that have been involved in the Preparedness for Climate Change programme (phases 1 & 2).  

Please read more about the criteria of the innovation fund.
Please use this simple template for submission.
