Call for PROPOSALS-Global EbA Fund – Small-Size Grants
The Global EbA Fund is inviting innovative and catalytic proposals that help overcome the systemic barriers preventing Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) from being scaled in climate-vulnerable countries.
The 8th Small-Size Grants Call will provide:
• Up to USD 250,000 per grant
• Up to 10 grants
• 18–24 month projects
The primary focus is on ODA-eligible Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Least Developed Countries (LDCs), with other ODA-eligible countries considered where there is exceptional ambition and a strong opportunity to scale EbA.
Projects should also demonstrate a clear adaptation chain, gender responsiveness, respect for Indigenous Peoples' rights, local participation, environmental and social safeguards, and a credible sustainability or exit strategy.
The Fund welcomes:
• Community-based organisations
• NGOs
• Universities and academic institutions
• Research institutes and think tanks
• Private-sector companies and specialised climate-adaptation organisations.
Call Launch: 24 August 2026
Applications Open: 28 September 2026
