SYNOPSIS

Humanitarian Grand Challenge is looking to fund groundbreaking, sustainable, and local solutions to pressing issues affecting communities touched by conflict. Our Transition to Scale program supports innovators who have achieved proof of concept with evidence that showcases the effectiveness and feasibility of their project.


We are looking for innovation ideas for our Transition to Scale (TTS) program. We offer funding between $300,000 CAD up to $1,500,000 CAD, and a robust support program that runs for  12–24 months. We focus on supporting people who have been affected by conflict with particular focus on the hardest to reach. 


Preference will be given to innovations that are locally owned or locally led with majority of the management and governance comprising of people from the affected communities.


Applications for HGC’ s Transition-to-Scale Funding are by invitation only and are reviewed on a rolling basis. If you have a great innovation idea to share, please fill out the short form located at http://gcc.fluxx.io.
