With rising global temperatures and the effects of climate change becoming increasingly evident, the need for effective strategies to mitigate the impacts of extreme heat is urgent. In this context, Unitaid is launching a unique opportunity for consortia that include Cape Verde, aiming to develop projects that strengthen the capacity to respond to and adapt to heat waves.<\/p>\n<p>Cape Verde, like many island nations, faces specific vulnerabilities related to extreme heat, including risks to public health, pressures on energy and water systems, and impacts on agriculture and food security. Unitaid, a leading global health organization, recognizes the importance of supporting initiatives that promote climate resilience, especially in the most affected regions. Through this call, Unitaid seeks to fund innovative projects that integrate multidisciplinary approaches, involving local, national, and international actors.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Objectives of the call<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Eligible consortia must submit proposals that address at least one of the following objectives:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Public health<\/strong>Develop strategies to protect vulnerable populations, such as the elderly, children, and low-income communities, from the effects of extreme heat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resilient infrastructures<\/strong>Implement solutions that improve energy efficiency and access to water in contexts of intense heat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Early warning systems<\/strong>To create or strengthen monitoring and warning mechanisms for heat waves, enabling a rapid and effective response.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Education and awareness-raising<\/strong>To promote awareness campaigns about the risks of heat and preventive measures.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><strong>Requirements for consortia<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To be eligible, consortia must:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Include at least one organization based in Cape Verde, ensuring that the proposed solutions are adapted to the local context.<\/li>\n<li>To demonstrate a collaborative approach, involving partners with proven experience in climate resilience, public health, or resource management.<\/li>\n<li>Present a clear implementation plan, with measurable goals and a detailed budget.<\/li>\n<li>To ensure the sustainability of the proposed solutions, with the potential for scalability and long-term impact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Why apply?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This Unitaid initiative represents a valuable opportunity for Cape Verde to strengthen its capacity to respond to climate change. In addition to funding, the selected projects will benefit from technical support and international visibility, potentially serving as models for other regions facing similar challenges. Collaboration between different actors also allows for the sharing of knowledge and best practices, maximizing the impact of interventions.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Next steps<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Interested consortia must submit their proposals by <strong>January 23, 2026<\/strong>, via the following link: <a href=\"https:\/\/unitaid.org\/call-for-proposal\/investigating-the-heat-stability-of-health-products-in-the-context-of-climate-change\/\">https:\/\/unitaid.org\/call-for-proposal\/investigating-the-heat-stability-of-health-products-in-the-context-of-climate-change\/<\/a>It is essential to carefully read the eligibility criteria and application guidelines before submitting your proposal.<\/p>\n<p>This call for proposals is an important step towards building a more resilient future for Cape Verde, where communities can adapt and thrive in the face of climate challenges.
