GCF Regional Dialogue with the Middle East

The Regional Dialogue aims to bring together National Designated Authorities (NDAs), Accredited Entities (AEs), Direct Access Entity (DAE) applicants, PSAA applicants, private sector actors, financial institutions, donors, and other regional and international partners to strengthen their engagement with GCF. It will serve as a platform for stakeholders to facilitate peer-to-peer learning, share experiences and best practices, and identify and develop climate change mitigation and adaptation initiatives. It will also enable GCF to understand and respond to the region’s priorities, challenges and needs, and provide targeted guidance to support stronger country projects and programming, and partnership development.

The Regional Dialogue will feature a series of strategic regional discussions, technical sessions and clinics focused on supporting public and private sector programming, with a focus on GCF’s third updated Strategic Plan (USP-3). Topics will include Islamic-climate finance, climate beyond Boundaries, Energy transitions, Catalytic funding and co-investment, and private sector and country priorities. Additionally, it will provide opportunities to strengthen partnerships around project pipelines, identify programming opportunities, and connect country aspirations with potential partners.

The Regional Dialogue will also provide a platform for participating countries, entities and partners to share knowledge and experiences, receive targeted guidance through country and thematic clinics, and engage directly with GCF and regional stakeholders.

By invitation only.
