The annual request for ideas for the Canada Fund for Local Projects has just been released by the Canadian High Commission in Pakistan (CFLI).
The CFLI is a programme created to assist small-scale, high-impact initiatives in developing nations that fit with the engagement priorities of Foreign Affairs Canada.
The programme is focused on initiatives created and planned primarily by regional partners in Pakistan. The relevant Canadian embassy or high commission chooses and approves projects. Through strengthening connections and assisting local initiatives, the CFLI also supports good relations between Canada and recipient nations and their civic communities.
Actions related to the environment and climate are centred on water management as well as adaptation and mitigation.
Initiatives promoting creative approaches to combating climate change and protecting the environment
Projects in support of responsible tourism, and issues impacting vulnerable and tourism-dependent communities. This will engage youth in climate action.
Speaking to women and girls from the local community, women and other people who work for civil society organisations who have worked in the local community, and female and male decision- and change-makers who are familiar with the local community.
