Islands Fund call for proposal 2024 | Deadline 12 November 2024

The non-profit endowment fund Blue has partnered with the Sustainable Small Islands Organisation, (SMILO), to support the Islands Fund, a fund that supports community-led solutions for small sustainable islands. The fund finances innovative, concrete field operations that advance island development while strengthening resilient marine ecosystems.

This call is open to local organisations working on islands engaged in SMILO’s labelling process or active members of SMILO islands network (valid membership).

The concrete solutions that will be supported will address one of the following themes:
• Sustainable tourism
• Biodiversity conservation and restoration in protected areas (existing or to be created), in view of favouring MPAs (Marine Protected Areas)

Grant amount
Islands certified or in the process of certification up to €15.000
Members of the network up to €7.000

Applications are open until November 12, 2024!
