Embassy small grants
Our sources follow 4 embassy small-grant schemes for Mozambique: Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI); Netherlands embassy funds (including the Human Rights Fund); Finland Fund for Local Cooperation (FLC); Swiss embassy Small Action funds. None has a call open at the moment. Amounts and dates below come from the calls we have recorded; the embassy's own page always has the current rules.
Run by Canadian embassies and high commissions, CFLI funds small projects designed and carried out by local organisations. Each post publishes its own call, priorities and deadline on Global Affairs Canada's site, usually once a year.
Dutch embassies publish calls for proposals on netherlandsandyou.nl, most often under the Human Rights Fund (Mensenrechtenfonds) and sometimes for other local programmes.
Finnish embassies support local civil society through the Fund for Local Cooperation and publish calls for proposals on finlandabroad.fi.
Some Swiss embassies run small funds for local initiatives and announce the calls on their own pages of the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs site.
Most schemes open once a year and give a few weeks to apply. Prepare your registration documents and a short project idea now, read embassy small grants explained, and create a free profile to have open calls screened for your organisation.
