Background

Hivos

Hivos is an international organisation guided by humanist values, that works for a world where people can realise their full potential, unleashing their ingenuity and creativity to build fair, just and life-sustaining societies for themselves and generations to come. We work in partnership with others in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Latin America in three impact areas: 1) civic rights in a digital age, 2) climate justice, and 3) gender equality, diversity and inclusion. Our approach is solution driven, and we build wider movements for change by amplifying and connecting voices. To ensure continuity and expansion of our work, we aim to diversify our sources of funding and increase our funding base.

 

The Challenge Fund for Just Transition (CFJT)

 

North Africa has a relatively young population, which is expected to grow by a quarter by 2030. The region suffers from high unemployment and underemployment levels which are accentuated in rural areas and marginalised regions. The region is particularly vulnerable to the negative effects of climate change, such as water scarcity, intense heat waves, scarcity-induced conflict, rising sea levels, etc.

 

In order to face these challenges, the countries of the region need to adopt a sustainable economic model which facilitates decent, green employment, especially for women and young people. 

 

The Challenge Fund for a Just Transition (CFJT) is funded by the Challenge Fund for Youth Employment (the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands), and aims to contribute to climate change mitigation by supporting small and growing businesses (SGBs) in North Africa to provide sustainable, decent jobs in the region’s green transition process.

 

The CFJT focuses on identifying green SGBs and providing them with the right support to scale rapidly through an alliance of local and regional partners. The project specifically seeks to identify and support SGBs that can act as catalysts for green value chain micro clusters. By rapidly scaling such “champion” SGBs, the CFJT also scales the clusters of micro-suppliers and distributors, as well as the micro-business clients around the SGBs, which will lead to the creation of new jobs, improve conditions of existing jobs, and connect unemployed youth with job opportunities.
