The Climate Change AI Innovation Grants program supports projects that address research and deployment challenges in climate change mitigation, adaptation, and climate science by leveraging AI and machine learning, while also creating publicly available datasets and tools to catalyze further work. The program enables key partnerships that accelerate the research-to-deployment cycle, creating synergies between academic researchers, nonprofits, startups and other companies, and governmental or intergovernmental organizations. Funded by the Quadrature Climate Foundation, Schmidt Futures, and Google DeepMind, with Future Earth serving as fiscal sponsor, this is one of the few dedicated grant programs specifically targeting the intersection of AI/ML and climate change. Projects typically involve climate modeling, weather prediction, emissions monitoring, energy optimization, biodiversity monitoring, and other environmental applications of machine learning. The 2026 competition opens with a full proposal deadline of September 15, 2026. The program has grown steadily since its inception, funding 23 projects to date across diverse climate domains and geographies.

Vinnova, Sweden's national innovation agency, funds projects developing applied AI solutions for Swedish industry through its Advanced Digitalization Programme. Each project can apply for between 2 and 10 million SEK (approximately $190,000 to $950,000 USD) covering up to 50% of eligible project costs. The total call budget is 60 million SEK. Projects run for 12-24 months and focus on two key areas: Intelligent Edge (AI for real-time application in the sensor chain) and AI-based decision support. All projects must address industrial needs and integrate gender equality and climate change perspectives. Scientific publications must be open access. A parallel call also funds AI and cybersecurity projects at 1-10 million SEK per project with a 50 million SEK total budget.
EOCA Grants to Support Global Ecosystem Conservation and Restoration Projects is a grant from the European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA) that funds nonprofit organizations working to conserve biodiversity in wild landscapes, including marine environments. Awards of up to €30,000 support projects that prioritize habitats capable of sequestering carbon or enabling climate change adaptation, while demonstrating tangible benefits to local communities. Eligible applicants must be non-profit organisations with a clear focus on conserving biodiversity. Projects must also show community engagement and measurable conservation outcomes. The deadline for the most recent cycle was March 31, 2026. Applications are submitted via the EOCA's short Stage 1 Application Form.
2026 Open Call for Installation Proposals (Mezzanine Gallery) is a grant from City of Boston Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture that funds 2D and 3D art installations in the highly visible Mezzanine Gallery at Boston City Hall.
