Applications Invited for Climate Change Mitigation

About the Organization

The Minor Foundation for Major Challenges is a Norwegian trust that funds communication projects which mitigate anthropogenic climate change. The foundation welcomes applications from all over the world. The board grants support to the projects they believe have the greatest impact on influencing public opinion and increasing political support for cutting green house gas emissions.

About the Grant

The Foundation supports advocates of climate change mitigation. The calls for applications are open to international applicants.

LARGE GRANTS 

In this category, MFMC is looking for projects typically in the range of EUR 20,000 to EUR 200,000, although larger projects may be considered. The application process consists of two steps, where interested organizations are asked to initially submit a short pitch. Based on this, the organization may be invited to submit a full application if the MFMC board finds the project appealing.

SMALL GRANTS

In this category, it is possible to apply for smaller grants of up to EUR 10,000 in a simplified one-stage process. Applications will be assessed by the MFMC board based on its aims and strategy.

Eligibility

• encourage and support innovation in climate communication
• increase the number of voices and narratives in climate advocacy
