Integrated Community-based Ecosystem Management (ICEMA) Project

(News release: November 01, 2005)

 

The Community Funding Facility
 

The Community Funding Facility (CFF) is concerned with sustainable use of natural resources and ecosystem services. Funds are available to communities for small-scale community-based economic activities, and related capacity and governance building to generate equitable benefits to community members. The CFF supports income-generating activities from registered conservancies and community forests.

Activities of the CFF include:

  • Providing funds to communities for small-scale community-based income generating activities

  • Promoting local capacity through support of tailored business planning, feasibility support, training, and mentoring

  • Contributing to increase economic benefits to community members from the sustainable use of natural resources
    and ecosystems

  • Seeking to develop joint development initiatives between groups of conservancies exploring income-generating activities

Activities eligible for funding by the CFF are among the following main classes:

  1. Ecosystem-based income generating activities
  2. Rehabilitation projects relating to degraded land, soil erosion, and the tourism infrastructure
  3. Social infrastructure that does not derive direct income-generating activities
  4. Non income-generating activities with the potential to reduce poverty and support investments
