The CFLI is a program designed to support small-scale, high-impact projects in developing countries, which align with Global Affairs Canada\u2019s thematic priority areas for engagement.<\/p>\n<p>The program is directed at projects conceived and designed predominantly by local partners. Projects are selected and approved by the relevant Canadian embassy or high commission. 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.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of CFLI funding is to be directed toward local civil society organizations (including non-governmental organizations) and other institutions working at the local level. Other entities, such as international, intergovernmental, multilateral and regional organizations may be eligible for funding, provided they are working with local partners and on local projects that are consistent with the objectives of the CFLI. Similarly, municipal, regional government institutions may receive funding, provided that their projects are essentially local in nature. The CFLI is always looking to fund innovative projects that deliver measurable results.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grant<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The average CFLI contribution is $30,000 to $60,000 Canadian Dollars (CAD$100,000 is the maximum allocation amount for a project eligible under CFLI).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Eligibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eligible recipients include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Local non-governmental, community and not-for-profit organizations<\/li>\n<li>Local academic institutions working on local projects<\/li>\n<li>International non-governmental organizations working on local development activities<\/li>\n<li>Intergovernmental, multilateral and regional institutions, organizations and agencies working on local development activities<\/li>\n<li>Municipal, regional or national government institutions or agencies of the recipient country working on local projects<\/li>\n<li>Canadian non-governmental and not-for-profit organizations that are working on local development activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Application<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Applicants must apply through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/compte-collaboration-account.international.canada.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Collaboration@International (C@I) portal<\/a>.
