Grants

Members can apply to TFAF for two types of grants; project preparation grants and project implementation grants to obtain TFA implementation assistance from a development partner, or to assist a Member in its pursuit of its implementation. They are as follows:

Project preparation grants (PPGs), up to US$30,000;

A Member may request a PPG in order to prepare a project proposal, analytical report or diagnostic study that may be used to acquire implementation assistance from a Partner.

A PPG may also be granted for the preparation of an application for a TFAF project implementation grant.

Project implementation grants (PGs), up to US$200,000;
