Communities across South Africa are at the forefront of the climate challenge — restoring landscapes, protecting natural resources, and building stronger, more inclusive local economies. This opportunity empowers them to take the lead through sustainable finance and collective action.
This program supports community groups and SACCOs engaged in savings and lending to strengthen livelihoods, land restoration, and ecosystem resilience. Funding enables onward lending for climate-smart projects, sustainable land management, and restoration activities that generate both economic and environmental benefits.
Grants available from modest to mid-range levels, fostering community-led innovation, gender inclusion, and youth engagement in local climate solutions.
