The Nordic Climate Change Facility (NCF) has launched the Third Call for Proposals on “Innovative Low-Cost Climate Solutions with a Focus on Local Business Development” in eligible developing countries.

The facility encourages business development and business opportunities which provide goods and services that will help reduce carbon dioxide emissions and facilitate climate change adaptation. A strong positive development impact, in addition to demonstrable  climate change benefits, is expected from successful applicants.

The best proposals may receive grant financing amounting to between €250,000 and €500,000 (Euros), or, in exceptional circumstances, between €150,000 and €250,000 (Euros). The projects should have an implementation period of less than 24 months.

The Facility is financed by the Nordic Development Fund (NDF) and implemented jointly with the Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO).
