The DEAL Martinique is issuing a call for proposals to nonprofit partners on the topic of environmental education and sustainable development.
The DEAL supports Martinique-based organizations in their initiatives and projects related to sustainable development, in line with the 17 goals of COP 21, ”to transform the world.” For example, improving nutrition and promoting sustainable agriculture, sustainable water resource management, and the conservation of natural resources…
As an island territory, Martinique is particularly affected by these issues.
In its 2020 call for proposals, the DEAL encourages new initiatives and projects that contribute “to citizen mobilization against environmental damage” and that combat global warming.
The chosen theme, “Implementing the Sustainable Development Goals,” encompasses many areas of action:
-Promoting short supply chains, local products, and seasonal, organic, and/or sustainable agriculture
-The fight against waste (freshwater, energy, food, etc.)
-Promoting initiatives to conserve natural resources (e.g., rainwater harvesting)
-Sustainable Mobility
-Initiatives aimed at developing and using natural energy sources as alternatives to fossil fuels in everyday life…
Any organization working in the environmental, educational, scientific, or social fields may submit a proposal in response to this call for projects by April 20, 2020.
The DEAL’s contribution amounts to a maximum of 80% of the total cost and is capped at 5,000€ per project. The selection criteria are defined as follows:
- The relevance of the project (purpose, objectives, number of people affected by the activities, sustainability, etc.)
- Compliance with the criteria listed in the paragraph—what kind of project?
- The project leader’s experience: environmental education and/or the ability to develop it, project implementation (previous experience), specific skills…
- Budgetary realism.
Applications should be sent by mail to the Director of the Department of Environment, Planning, and Housing (for the attention of the SPPDD unit). P.O. Box 7212, Pointe de Jaham, 97274 Schoelcher Cedex
