How can an organization in a developing country receive funding from CIDA?
If an organization is based in a country or territory eligible for Canadian development assistance and is interested in implementing a project that will aid the country’s development, the organization needs to contact the Canadian cooperation section of Canada’s representative for its home country. The Canadian government also supports small, locally generated development projects through the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives. Projects are short-term and focus on strengthening the relationship with local communities in the poorest areas. It works with non-governmental organizations and government institutions to create alliances to ensure project sustainability. The Canadian Representatives Abroad site can provide more information on these and other funds.
