Dear colleagues

CDKN is pleased to announce that the CDKN Innovation Fund (round 2 - Africa focus) - now open for applications

The second deadline for applications to the Innovation Fund is 31 August 2012, 17:00 (GMT+1)

The fund supports innovative thinking and action.  It is designed as open and competitive to provide fast-moving support for creative initatives in the field of climate change and international development.

Round 2 is now structured around support for partnership in designing and developing projects on climate compatible development, through an innovation process.  Potential outputs from this process could include a "game-changing" (defined as: 'an event, idea, or procedure that effects a significant shift in the current way of doing or thinking about something') project proposal, learning materials, best practice tool kits, policy briefs and an implementation road map.

Round 2 will support two innovation process awards of up to GBP100,000 each.  Subsequently CDKN may provide awards of up to GBP200,000 each to support the implementation of high-quality results from the innovatiom processes.

Round 2 of the CDKN Innovation Fund launched on 22 June and will close on 31 August at 17:00 (GMT+1).
