Rwanda Calls for Funding Proposals for Green Growth, Conservation, Climate Change Mitigation
Rwanda’s Green Fund (FONERWA) is calling for ministries, government agencies, districts, private sector companies, academic institutions and civil society organisations to submit funding proposals for initiatives that promote the mainstreaming of environmental protection, climate change and green growth into Rwanda’s economic development programmes.
“Climate mainstreaming is about ensuring the environment and climate change are at the core of our development plans, policies and strategies. We want to invest in initiatives that bring all stakeholders to the table to incorporate sustainability and green growth into a sector’s development. The deadline for funding proposals is 14 October 2016.
“By bringing everyone on board, we know the return on investment for Rwanda’s socio-economic development and natural environment will be immense,” Alex Mulisa, the Coordinator of the Green Fund said to officially invite applications,
