Non-government organisations (NGOs) play a critical role in helping communities respond to climate change, which can also help alleviate poverty and enhance livelihoods in developing countries.

The Community-based Climate Change Action Grants is a funding scheme for NGOs to develop and implement community-based climate change responses.

Applications are now open for Australian and international NGOs.

Organisations are invited to submit concept proposals under two main categories:

1. Community-based adaptation grants, which will help build the resilience of communities to the impacts of climate change; and

2. Community-based mitigation grants, which will help communities reduce or avoid greenhouse gas emissions, while also addressing key development priorities.
