Call for Regenerative Communities Fund Opening Soon!
The Regenerative Communities Fund (RCF), an initiative by ECOLISE launched in 2024, will officially open its Second Call for Proposals on Monday, 21 July 2025. This call will select 15 Demonstrators from across Croatia, Finland, France, Portugal, and Spain.
This is an advance announcement to help potential applicants prepare. If you are part of an existing, innovative, community-led initiative (CLI) working on climate action, regeneration, or just transition, this is your opportunity to connect, share, and amplify your impact across Europe. Take a look at the preview and get ready for the opening of applications!

The RCF is part of Funding Fairer Futures (FFF), a project co-funded by the European Commission under the DEAR Programme. It supports civil society organisations and community groups across Europe in delivering powerful, inclusive, and grassroots responses to the climate crisis.
The RCF helps community-led initiatives overcome barriers—like lack of funding, outreach, or technical support—especially in marginalised or underserved communities. Through an ecosystem of National Hubs, Demonstrators, and upcoming Pathfinder communities, RCF aims to build an inclusive movement for eco-social regeneration.
