Operational Pathways for Local-Led Implementation

Program Tracks

Each intervention under the Umbrella Fund is implemented through tracks—targeted, time-bound calls for proposals that invite local organizations to lead catalytic solutions.

Tracks are how the Fund puts strategy into action. They translate sector-specific objectives into structured, locally led programming.

Each track is:

Thematic

Tied to a specific intervention outcome (e.g., training, systems strengthening)

Competitive

Based on an open or invited call for concept notes

Collaborative

Implemented with technical, academic, and public partners

Time-bound

Typically six months in duration, with flexibility based on context

🇨🇩DRC – TRACK 1

Pilot Call for Local Geospatial Capacity Development

STATUS: CLOSED

This track served as a diagnostic investment to test subnational capacity and inform future track design. Selected organizations proposed pilot solutions to local data gaps.

What’s Next?

Insights gathered from Nigeria and the DRC will inform future geospatial tracks and support the potential expansion of the Fund’s work into new sectors and regions.
