Canada Fund for Local Initiatives

The Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) provides support to small
scale, short-term projects in the Pacific by working with local, national
and international NGOs and other organizations. The CFLI focuses on funding
projects with long-term, sustainable goals that enhance the local
community. Recipient organizations are expected to make a contribution in
cash or in kind. The program is widely recognized as making a significant
contribution to genuine development and capacity-building in the region.

The program is managed directly by the High Commission of Canada in
Canberra, Australia for projects in the following Pacific island countries:

   - Papua New Guinea
   - Vanuatu
   - Solomon Islands
   - Nauru
   - Palau
   - Federated States of Micronesia, and
   - Republic of the Marshall Islands

Thematic Priorities

All projects must align with at least one of the following CFLI thematic
priorities:

   - Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.
   - Inclusive governance, including diversity, democracy, human rights and
   the rule of law.
   - Peace and security, with a focus on conflict prevention and building
   peace.
   - Human dignity, covering health, education and nutrition.
   - Growth that works for everyone, including women’s economic rights,
   decent jobs and entrepreneurship, investing in the poorest and most
   vulnerable, and safeguarding economic gains.
   - Environment and climate action focusing on adaptation and mitigation,
   as well as on water management.

Organizations eligible to apply for CFLI Funding

Within the context of eligible countries, eligible recipients include:

   - local non-governmental, community and not-for-profit organizations,
   - local academic institutions working on local projects,
   - international, intergovernmental, multilateral and regional
   institutions, organizations and agencies working on local development
   activities,
   - municipal, regional or national government institutions or agencies of
   the recipient country working on local projects, and
   - Canadian non-governmental and not-for-profit organizations that are
   working on local development activities.

Gender-Based Analysis (GBA)

In 2017, Canada adopted a Feminist International Assistance Policy
<http://international.gc.ca/world-monde/issues_development-enjeux_developpement/priorities-priorites/policy-politique.aspx?lang=eng>
 to advance gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls as the
most effective way to reduce poverty and build a more inclusive, peaceful
and prosperous world. In alignment with this policy, a Gender-Based
Analysis will be a required element of the CFLI project application
process. Inadequate completion of a Gender-Based Analysis may affect the
consideration of your proposal.
