GCF.10
10 years of climate impact
In November 2015, the Green Climate Fund (GCF) approved USD 6.2 million for its first project in Peru’s Amazon basin. Since then, GCF’s portfolio has grown to USD 19.3 billion, with more than 300 projects in over 130 countries. GCF.10 looks back on GCF’s journey and impact as the world’s climate fund for developing countries and reinforces GCF’s commitment to even more impact in a critical time of the climate crisis.
A decade of progress
Looking ahead
While GCF has made many gains in the past decade, it has the potential to do so much more. Since 2023, GCF has been on an ambitious reform agenda to make the Fund more responsive to country needs and more focused on efficiency and impact.
This means rethinking how the Fund works and serves its partners. This has resulted in a restructured organisation and regionally focused model that brings GCF closer to countries. Operations are also being revamped to make it faster and easier for countries to access GCF financing.
Change is not easy, but it is essential for people and the planet. GCF is committed to doing things differently to serve countries better and help them respond to the urgent climate challenge.
As we didn’t have the money to do it on our own, I felt very good that they were going to raise the height of the house, build a goat shed and a latrine… during floods, I don’t have to face these hardships. Now life is good.
