The work featured here has been funded through the generous contribution of the Global Environment Facility (GEF).
The GEF includes several Trust Funds, including the Least Developed Countries Fund and the Special Climate Change Fund, working together to tackle the planet's most pressing environmental challenges and support developing countries to meet international environmental goals.
UNDP has partnered with the GEF since 1991, supporting over 160 countries with over US$8 billion in grant funding. In its active portfolio, for every $1 in grants received, an additional $6 in co-financing investments are unlocked. This work targets key priorities such as increasing access to sustainable energy and strengthening climate adaptation and resilience, through flagship initiatives such as the Africa Minigrids Program and the Adaptation Innovation Marketplace.
