GCF in Brief: Complementarity and coherence
Overview
GCF is committed to ensuring that our activities complement those of other funds, and that together we have a coherent approach to supporting the climate ambitions of developing countries.
Complementarity refers to synergies among the various climate funds’ activities in similar sectors and themes (adaptation or mitigation),
and even across regions of similar characteristics, with the aim of scaling up transformative actions. Coherence is about using country programming to seek alignment with nationally determined Contributions (ndCs) and national adaptation plans (naps).
GCF works with the Adaptation Fund (AF), the Climate Investment Funds (CIF), and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to maximise the impact of our activities.
