The Czech Republic is opening its doors to small-scale initiatives in Cape Verde, with a deadline of 25 October 2026! The Embassy of the Czech Republic is pleased to announce the opening of the application process for its Small-Scale Projects (PJS) for the year 2027, offering an invaluable opportunity for organisations and communities in Cape Verde to develop and implement projects aimed at sustainable development and the improvement of living conditions. This programme, which focuses on low-cost but high-impact initiatives, seeks to support proposals that address urgent needs and contribute to the socio-economic progress of the archipelago.
Small-scale projects represent an effective means of bilateral cooperation, enabling the Czech Republic to contribute actively to Cape Verde’s growth and prosperity. The areas of focus are varied, ranging from community development, education and health projects to initiatives in environmental protection, sustainable agriculture and women’s empowerment. The Embassy encourages the submission of innovative proposals that demonstrate a clear understanding of local needs and offer practical and sustainable solutions.
It is essential that applications are submitted by entities legally established in Cape Verde, whether they are non-governmental organisations (NGOs), associations, cooperatives, local communities or other non-profit organisations. The sustainability of projects after the funding period is a key criterion, as is the capacity for community involvement and the demonstration of tangible results. Attention to detail and clarity in the presentation of proposals will be decisive for the success of applications.
This funding programme is a clear demonstration of the Czech Republic’s commitment to Cape Verde’s development and to fostering strong, mutually beneficial partnerships. We encourage all interested parties to explore this opportunity and to submit their ideas.
The deadline for submitting proposals is 25 October 2026.
