CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency) through The Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) supports small projects proposed and implemented by local organizations in Angola.

– the International Humanitarian Assistance Program;
– other programs that allow institutions, associations, Canadian and international non-governmental organizations and, private sector enterprises to receive funding from CIDA to execute projects worldwide.
