Project Overview

GGGI is the delivery partner for the USD 2.975 M GCF readiness project, working in close collaboration with the GCF NDA, the Climate Change Secretariat of the Ministry of Environment. The GCF NAP Readiness project aims to build resilience of the most vulnerable sectors and communities in Sri Lanka to adverse effects of climate change by strengthening the country’s capacity and institutional systems to implement the National Adaptation Plan that focuses on nine sectors that are vulnerable to climate change. One of the project’s key outcomes is expected to be strengthening access to adaptation finance coupled with a sustainable resource mobilization approach for adaptation – including, access to both international and national climate change financing mechanisms, such as investments by the private sector. It also includes vertical adaptation integration and developing provincial level adaptation plans.
