Climate Adaptation grants — page 2

Funding for resilience, flood defence, drought and climate-proofing infrastructure. Backed by the Green Climate Fund and Adaptation Fund, the World Bank and regional banks, the EU, and national adaptation programmes. Listed below are the open climate adaptation grant calls in that landscape, taken from each funder's own notice and re-checked on every refresh.

Adaptation money is overwhelmingly development finance: the Green Climate Fund, the Adaptation Fund, the World Bank and the regional banks, bilateral aid programmes, and health funders including Wellcome and the Gates Foundation on the health side. Awards are usually made to or through an organisation registered in the country where the work happens, so partnership structure tends to matter more to eligibility than technical merit does.

This page lists open climate adaptation grants currently tracked by Raise Lens — 1,462 of them right now, sorted with the soonest deadline first. Every listing has been classified against the sustainability taxonomy rather than matched on keywords, so what appears here is climate adaptation work rather than anything whose description happens to mention it.

The funders publishing climate adaptation grants here include NDN Collective, Blue Action Fund, Open Rivers Programme, among 2 others. Who is funding matters as much as what: eligibility, reporting burden and the realistic timeline to a decision vary far more between funders than between individual calls.

Geographic coverage on this page spans ASIA, SE-ASIA, SOUTH-ASIA, EAST-ASIA, EUROPE. Eligibility is usually tied to where the work happens or where the applying organisation is registered, and the two are not always the same — worth checking before investing time in an application.
