Publicity and Education Projects

Publicity and Education (P&E) Projects are promotional or educational programmes or activities mainly to enhance children’s and the general public’s environmental awareness and knowledge of environmental issues; and/or environmental projects that mobilise individuals to take direct and positive action to improve and conserve the environment, and induce individual behavioural change with a view to practicing a green and low carbon lifestyle. All P&E Projects should target at bring positive impact on the environment with measurable and tangible outcome against the objectives set for the projects, based on the objectives set for the project, and thus should not be one-off publicity events.

P&E Projects are categorised in the following themes:

Each P&EP Project period should normally last for not more than 2 years, unless with justifications accepted by or as required by the ECF Committee for specific reason(s). For Special Grant Projects, the project period should not be more than 1 year. For projects from First-time Applicant Organisations, the project period normally should also not be more than 1 year.

Applications can be submitted online through Smart ECF or by email.
