GRANT : Submit Proposals For The Digital and Green Innovations Action In Africa Grant
Enabel is implementing this call for proposals as part of the Digital and Green Innovation Joint Action through its Innovation Hub, Wehubit.
Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Central Asia, and Asia-Pacific will all be included in the global reach of the DGI Action.
Both Broad and Particular Goals
The main goal of this call for proposals is to support inclusive and sustainable development in the partner nations of the Belgian development cooperation by promoting the use of and access to digital solutions as a means of addressing environmental issues like climate change and biodiversity loss.
The Call for Proposals' specific goal is to find and assist in the scaling up of Digital and Green Innovations (DGI) that are pertinent to the European Union's and Enabel's country portfolio objectives in the corresponding African partner countries of the Belgian development cooperation.
The purpose of this call for proposals is to find and assist digital and green innovations that are either ready to scale or in the process of scaling up.
Output 1 (Africa): In the acceleration phase, entrepreneurship in Africa supports green and digital innovation.
Output 2 (Africa): Support for (pre)-acceleration and incubation in Africa
Building capacity for earth observation in Latin America and the Caribbean is the third output.
Output 4 (Asia Pacific): In the acceleration phase, entrepreneurial support for green and digital innovation in the region
Output 5: Partnerships and policy discussions
Financial broking is the sixth output.
The Call focusses on giving funding and opportunities for capacity building and learning to academic institutions, CSOs, NGOs, and other "not-forprofit" actors (including social businesses or not-for-profit business organisations), as well as public institutions at the national and/or regional levels.
The two-round competitive selection procedure is organised via this call for proposals. Only four or five of the applications that were received will be granted a grant after the second round to help with the sustainable scaling of their suggested digital and green innovations.
DGIs ought to be put into practice in at least one of the following African partner nations: Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Guinea-Conakry, Mali, Mozambique, Morocco, Niger, Rwanda, Uganda, Senegal, and Tanzania.
The scope of DGIs that span multiple countries or regions is valued in this call for proposals.
Uganda and Rwanda are the two nations that are prioritised in the call for proposals since they are shared by other EU partners carrying out operations in Africa, and this is done to ensure the coherence and long-term sustainability of the supported DSIs.
