Grant Programs for Agriculture, Energy, Environment, Natural Resources

Projects in grassroots agriculture, climate change, and natural resources. ICCO supports projects in the following subject areas, varying according to regional priorities.

  • Support for agricultural markets;
  • Food security and water;
