The Third Call for Pathfinder Communities under the Regenerative Communities Fund (RCF)

The Third Call for Pathfinder Communities under the Regenerative Communities Fund (RCF) is now open! This is an exciting opportunity for both emerging and well established, small-scale, community-led initiatives (CLIs) locally rooted in Croatia, Finland, France, Portugal, and Spain to access funding and capacity-building support to deepen their impact, inspire others, and contribute to a just and inclusive climate transition across Europe.

Selected Pathfinder Communities will become part of the wider ECOLISE network of diverse members and CLI actors, amplifying the voices of communities led by and/or working for women, young people, people with disabilities, and other marginalised or minority groups, including LGBTQIA+ communities, ethnic, religious, cultural, linguistic, and Indigenous groups. If you are part of a grassroot, transformative community-led initiative working to strengthen climate action through regeneration, environmental justice, and local empowerment, start preparing now. The deadline for applications is 26 January 2026, 23:59 CET.
