The Global Greengrants Fund accepts applications from organizations working on environmental projects in developing countries around the world. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are usually given preference but other types of organizations can also apply. All organizations must have a valid project proposal which outlines their goals, strategies, methods of implementation, budget, timeline, etc.

Grants generally range from US$1 thousand to US$30 thousand although larger grants may be available in some cases. Funds are awarded on a competitive basis where project proposals are evaluated based on criteria like feasibility of implementation, potential impact on environment or community welfare, cost effectiveness of proposed strategies etc.

Projects supported by the global green grants fund typically involve activities such as habitat restoration, biodiversity conservation or climate change adaptation related initiatives. Other more specific issues that can be considered include air/water pollution prevention/control programs, energy efficiency projects or organic farming initiatives etc.

All applicants must submit an application form along with their project proposal which includes goals/objectives/methods/budget for their project. In addition to this information there may also be special requirements depending on type of project eg.- For biodiversity conservation/protection grant applications you may require evidence demonstrating previous experience with similar projects or resources needed for implementation etc.

There is no set deadline for submitting applications as they are accepted throughout the year on rolling basis however applicants usually receive response within 2-3 months after submission of their proposal including feedback in case of rejection.
