CFP-1: APPLICATION UPDATE
The Virgin Islands Climate Change Trust Fund’s inaugural Call for Proposals (CFP-1) is underway, marking an important step in mobilising local action to strengthen climate resilience across the Virgin Islands.
The first stage of the application process opened on 3 September 2026, inviting eligible entities to submit Concept Notes for projects that respond to the Territory’s climate resilience priorities. The Concept Note submission period closed on 23 September 2026, and applications are now being reviewed for eligibility and alignment with the requirements of CFP-1.
Eligible applicants will be invited in early October to progress to the next stage and submit a Detailed Application, with a deadline of October 2026.
Through this inaugural funding programme, the VICCTF is making US$900,000 available for Community Resilience Grants, supporting practical projects that strengthen the resilience of our communities, ecosystems and economy. A further US$100,000 is available through Capacity-Building Grants to help eligible entities strengthen their capacity to participate in climate action that benefits communities across the Virgin Islands and better prepare for future funding opportunities.
