The Embassy of Canada is conducting a seminar in Yerevan for local NGO representatives on the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) program, including an overview of the program; the application process, and implementation, budgeting, and reporting requirements.
The CFLI is a responsive, flexible program, directly managed by the Canadian Embassy in Moscow to fund small but visible, high impact, results-oriented projects in Armenia and Uzbekistan. Through contribution agreements, the CFLI provides monetary assistance that covers all or a portion of the cost of projects that are comparatively modest in scope, scale and cost and that are usually conceived and designed by local organizations. The average contribution is 10,000-25,000 Canadian Dollars for 3-4 month projects.
CFLI priorities vary from year to year but they all advance democracy and ensure security and stability. CFLI priorities from the last year:
· Preventing sexual and gender-based violence;
· Protecting human rights and fundamental freedoms, including vulnerable groups such as sexual minorities;
· Supporting democratic transition and expanded democratic participation, particularly by women and minority groups;
· Entrenching the rule of law and combatting the destabilizing impact of crime and corruption, including through security sector capacity building;
· Strengthening economic governance, including building free markets and an effective enabling environment for business.
The event will take place on February 25th at 11:00 at Best Western Congress Hotel, Combined Hall, address: Yerevan, Italy Str. 1.
