The 28th call for proposals from the Fund for the Consolidation of Cooperation (CFC) represents a unique opportunity for Cape Verdean organizations seeking to strengthen and innovate in the agricultural sector. With the aim of boosting sustainable development and food security in Cape Verde, this edition focuses specifically on projects that demonstrate a direct and positive impact on agriculture, livestock, fisheries, and related activities. The initiative aims to support proposals that promote more efficient agricultural practices, resilient to climate change, and that improve the value chain of local agricultural products.<\/p>\n
This funding competition is aimed at a wide range of Cape Verdean entities, including agricultural cooperatives, producer associations, NGOs operating in the sector, and other civil society organizations. Eligibility criteria prioritize projects that incorporate elements of innovation, environmental sustainability, and social inclusion, with particular attention to the involvement of young people and women in agricultural activities. Submitted projects should address concrete challenges faced by farmers and fishermen, such as market access, improved product quality, the adoption of sustainable technologies, and the enhancement of the national agri-food heritage.<\/p>\n
The support granted through the 28th CFC call will cover various areas, from financing investments in infrastructure and equipment, to training and capacity building for technicians and producers, and the development of feasibility studies and business plans. The Fund also seeks to encourage the creation of strategic partnerships between local organizations and international entities, as well as the exchange of knowledge and best practices. We believe that investment in the agricultural sector is fundamental for the economic diversification of Cape Verde and for improving the quality of life of its population.<\/p>\n
