Projects for People
The MFF initiative is implemented through a series of on-the-ground projects which will deliver the actions, outputs and associated results based on the PoWs. At project level, activities are implemented through a decentralized structure comprising NGOs, community-based organizations and the private sector. These organizations play a vital role in helping to address the gaps in capacity, coordination and participation which currently exist in the public sector. There are two categories of project funding, a Small Grant Facility (SGF) and MFF large projects. All projects must be aligned with the priorities of the National Strategy and Action Plan (NSAP) of each country.
Large Projects
Large projects have a budget from USD 50,000 to a maximum of USD 300,000 per project. Each NCB can announce a call for proposals, or invite eligible institutions to apply. To ensure transparency, the large projects are also screened by the TAP. Large projects that are implemented by 2-6 focal countries are encouraged to promote a regional approach to coastal ecosystem management.

Small Grant Facilities
Each focal country received an initial allocation of USD 100,000 for SGF projects. The SGF projects are divided into two categories: i) less than USD 10,000, ii) between USD 10,000 - 25,000. SGF guidelines developed by the MFF Secretariat have been tailored by each country to better suit local conditions and needs. SGF projects are managed on behalf of the NCB by an IUCN or UNDP country office in each focal country.
