Cameroon climate finance landscape

This mapping tool was developed as part of the BRIDGE project co-funded by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands through the Step Change initiative and implemented by ICLEI Africa. This tool is primarily intended for Cameroonian municipalities and climate change knowledge brokers/intermediaries. Its primary goal is to improve access to information on funding opportunities for locally-led adaptation projects, thereby enhancing the ability to identify and secure financial support for these initiatives. Designed as a dynamic resource, the tool can be updated with successive iterations and external contributions. This initial layer of mapping focuses on international public funding sources.

Support for smallholder farmers

Timeline: May 2023 – Apr 2027
Budget: EUR 362,000

The programme aims to sustainably improve the living conditions of smallholder farmers by promoting agroecological practices. It focuses on enhancing agro-pastoral farms, where producers successfully implement agroecological methods. Additionally, it fosters the establishment of producer organizations that offer essential support services to their members. The agroecological concepts driving the initiative are rooted in widely available empirical data, ensuring they are relevant and applicable to the local context.
