Program description

The CFLI is a program designed to support small-scale, high-impact projects in developing countries, which align with 抖淫视频’s thematic priority areas for engagement. The program is directed at projects conceived and designed predominantly by local partners. Projects are selected and approved by the relevant Canadian embassy. The CFLI also serves to support positive bilateral relations between Canada and recipient countries and their civil societies, by deepening contacts and supporting local endeavours.

Organizations eligible to apply for Canada Fund funding

 Eligible recipients are limited to:

• Brazilian non-governmental, community and not-for-profit organizations. Organizations must be registered with a CNPJ.

Thematic priorities

All projects must produce concrete, tangible and lasting results and be aligned with at least one of the following CFLI thematic priorities:

• Human rights and human dignity (including groups that are victims of discrimination, such as black, brown, indigenous, quilombolas, LGBTQIA+, and refugees and migrant communities). 
• Inclusive governance, including diversity, democracy and the rule of law.
• Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.
• Environment and climate action with a focus on adaptation and mitigation as well as water management.
• Urgent and targeted response to emergent disasters or crises that support migrant and refugee populations and host communities, and are in line with Canada's International Feminist Assistance Policy.

For the 2024-2025 period, the CFLI - Brazil especially welcomes projects in the north and northeast of Brazil, and projects on human rights, diversity and inclusion, and/or indigenous rights.

Gender-based analysis

In 2017, Canada adopted its Feminist International Assistance Policy 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, the CFLI project application process now requires a gender-based analysis (GBA). The purpose of this change is to enhance the gender equality outcomes of the CFLI program.

A GBA will require applicants to:

• consider how women, girls, men, and boys are affected differently by the problem their project is aiming to address, ensuring, at the same time, that the project does not cause harm;
• consult women and/or girls in the development of their project proposal;
• ensure that the views of the women and/or girls consulted inform the project’s design.

Note that consultations can include, but are not limited to, speaking to women and girls from the local community concerned; women and other individuals who work for civil society organizations and who have worked in the local community; and female and male decision and change makers who have knowledge of the local community.

Inadequate completion of a GBA may affect the consideration of your proposal.
