Call for Proposals: Climate Adaptation Innovation in Latin America and the Caribbean
•
Recommended Opportunity
The Climate Technology Centre and Network (UN CTCN) has today launched a new call for proposals under the Adaptation Fund Climate Innovation Accelerator (AFCIA), seeking innovative climate adaptation solutions from across Latin America and the Caribbean.
The call for proposals will be open until 18 August 2026 and is exclusively targeted at Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS) in the region.
Through the AFCIA programme, UN CTCN provides technical assistance to organisations developing innovative approaches to climate adaptation. The programme focuses on supporting transformative and locally led solutions solutions.
Up to 40 projects will be selected through the new regional call. Each project can receive up to USD 150,000 in technical assistance support for piloting innovative climate adaptation solutions. Projects that can demonstrate excellence in innovation and sustainability will be prioritized.
Rather than transferring grants directly, UN CTCN’s programme provides technical assistance support designed to strengthen institutional capacity, facilitate knowledge sharing, and connect projects with specialised expertise and resources.
