Providing loans and technical assistance in 17 developing countries across Africa and Latin America and the Caribbean to create self-sustaining markets in energy efficiency, renewable energy and climate resilience. The...

This first phase of the project will promote rural electrification through isolated solar photovoltaic (PV) green mini-grid systems as a low-carbon and resilient solution to the effects of climate change in the energy...

Traditional biomass represents approximately 15 percent of total global energy use and helps meeting the cooking needs of approximately 2.5 billion people. The IPCC estimated that replacing traditional open fires with...

The GCF-DBSA Embedded Generation Investment Programme (“EGIP”) will support the implementation of renewable energy projects with a capacity of 330 MW, which is comprised of 280 MW Solar PV and 50 MW Wind. This will be...

This is the first project that has been approved under the GCF’s REDD+ results-based payments pilot programme. It provides payments for results derived from reducing emissions from deforestation in the Amazon region in...

Supporting the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) in adapting to increasing climate risks, particularly more frequent and extreme droughts, which impact the country’s drinking water supply The...

The local food systems of the upper and middle Ouémé Basin in Benin, the main food basket of the country, is highly vulnerable to climate change due to intense and frequent extreme weather events, mainly flash floods...

The fishery sector in Gambia is facing numerous challenges from climate change impacts. Communities across the country rely heavily on the Gambia river for their source of income, including artisanal fisheries which is...

Developing a low-carbon water management scheme and increasing water availability for sustainable agriculture. The water level of the coastal aquifer in Gaza, the region’s only freshwater resource, is declining rapidly...

While almost all of Senegal’s urban areas have access to electricity, about 58 percent of people in rural areas do not. For basic energy needs, these households mainly rely on fuelwood for cooking, and kerosene lamps...

In Mongolia average temperatures have risen by 2.1°C over the past 70 years. Average rainfall is declining, and extreme weather events are more frequent. This poses challenges to livestock production and managing the...

One of the most water-scarce countries, Jordan is facing severe climate change risks. Increasing temperatures and reduced rainfall patterns, coupled with an unprecedented population growth due to an influx of refugees,...

Southeast Asia is one of the world's most energy-intensive regions, with rapid urbanisation and industrialisation increasing its greenhouse gas emissions. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on the region's...

Cuba is frequently affected by tropical storms and it is highly vulnerable to extreme weather events. Due to its long coastline, 57 percent of the country’s population lives in coastal municipalities which are highly...

While raising livestock forms the cultural and economic bedrocks of many communities in Botswana, this practice is becoming increasingly affected by climate change. With rising temperatures and more erratic rainfall,...

Despite having historically low deforestation rates, the Republic of Congo's vast areas of forests are now under increasing threat. A major cause is slash-and-burn farming to expand agriculture and meet the energy needs...

Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius and Seychelles, located in the Southwest Indian Ocean region, are highly vulnerable to climate change. Tropical cyclones are the most frequent catastrophic hazards in the region and have...

The Sahel region of Western Africa is exceptionally vulnerable to climate change with worsening impacts of rising temperature, rainfall variability and extreme weather events. Reliance on rain-fed farming and...

Falling technology costs are making investment in renewable energy commercially viable in increasingly more countries. Nevertheless, global investment remains below the targets needed to meet the Paris Agreement....

Seventy percent of Namibia’s population depends on natural resources to sustain their livelihoods. The productivity of these natural resources is threatened by both climate and non-climate drivers, both which increase...
