About the Organization
The Minor Foundation for Major Challenges (MFMC) is a Norwegian foundation that supports communication projects which advance the transition to a low carbon economy.
Priorities:
The foundation’s priorities for the 2019-2023 period are to:
- encourage and support innovation in climate communication
- increase the number of voices and narratives in climate advocacy
- help strengthen social and political movements that open up for radical change
- concentrate on supporting European proposals
About the Grant
We support new and unexpected ways of communicating the need for transitioning to a low-carbon economy.
We want to finance projects that inspire us. Many charitable funders will avoid unproven techniques, high-risk projects, or audiences not reached by normal campaigns, but those things are what we’re here for.
In light of MFMC’s Full Funding Strategy, the Board will review all applications against the following questions:
- Describe the systemic change you are seeking to create
- Why are you the right group or organisation to achieve this change?
- Why is your project needed at this exact moment?
The Minor Foundation supports European-based organisations and communication projects that:
- Lead to changes in policies or practises in public or private institutions in line with pathways for 1,5C
- Increase knowledge and implementation of needed policies and technologies
- Reduce new build out or use of fossil fuels
- Increase the uptake and use of carbon-free solutions
- Create positive mobilisation for the actions and policies needed to keep global warming within the pathway of 1,5C
- Increase the number of voices and narratives in climate advocacy
MFMC traditionally announces six calls for applications every year, in two different categories: large and small grants.
- 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.
