€15 million in subsidies for international climate projects

The Government of Flanders launched in 2021 the Flanders International Climate Action Programme, a subsidy programme aimed at supporting countries worldwide in the fight against climate change. For the fourth call €15 million in subsidies are provided for projects which implement and upscale climate solutions. The goal is to enable these countries to follow low-carbon development paths and to make their communities more resilient to the impacts of climate change.

This programme provides subsidies for demonstration, dissemination and capacity building projects implemented in developing countries, with a Flemish organization in the lead.

To be eligible for financial support from the Government of Flanders under the Flanders International Climate Action Programme, projects must directly and explicitly aim at supporting adaptation and/or mitigation actions in developing countries. Projects must focus on areas where climate-related solutions can be expected to have maximal impact, preferably in one or more of the following sectors: Agriculture, Biodiversity, Education & Research, Energy, Environmental Policy, Transport and Water & Sanitation.

To register and submit a project, the main applicant has to create an account or log in to the existing account.
