The Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) is pleased to announce the Third Call for Concept Notes for the Community Disaster Risk Reduction Fund (CDRRF). The purpose of the CDRRF is to provide grants to communities across the Caribbean to support the costs of undertaking projects to strengthen the population’s ability to react to and reduce the risk of exposure to natural hazards. Concept Notes should depict innovative and transformative community-driven solutions in the priority areas of Disaster Risk Reduction/Climate Change Adaptation and related livelihoods projects. CDRRF will collect information on the lessons learned from each project that can be applied to other community projects. Information from a project that is found to be especially successful for one community will be shared with other communities. Non-Governmental Organisations, Community-based Organisations, Faith-based Organisations and Government Agencies as well as National Research Institutions in 18 Borrowing Member Countries of the CDB may submit Concept Notes to implement projects for up to 24 months ranging in cost from USD400,000 to USD650,000.
