United Nations Environment Programme
A Partner In
The Global Environment Facility
The Global Environment Facility
Funding the incremental costs of actions by developing countries and
CEITs that provide global environmental benefits in six focal areas:
• Biological Diversity
• Climate Change
• International Waters
• Protection of the Ozone Layer
• Land Degradation
• Persistent Organic Pollutants
Implementing Agencies: UNEP, UNDP, World Bank
Executing Agencies: ADB, AfDB, IDB, EBRD, FAO, UNIDO, IFAD
UNEP Role in GEF
catalyzing
development of scientific and technical
analysis and advancement of environmental management
in GEF activities
guidance
on relating GEF activities to environmental
assessments, policy frameworks and plans, and to
environmental agreements
Secretariat
support to Scientific & Technical Advisory
Panel (STAP)
UNEP - GEF Project Priorities
Activities additional to but consistent with regular work programme,
focusing on areas of comparative advantage:
– Environmental Information and Assessments
– Tools and Methodologies
– Action Plans and Strategies
– Trans-boundary issues, shared ecosystems
– Capacity building
Over 140 countries participate in

Support to MEAs
Building National Capacity: GEF Enabling
Activities
•Biodiversity (CBD) - China, Pakistan, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu
•Biosafety (Cartagena Protocol) - China, Pakistan, and 26 countries from
Asia/Pacific region developing national biosafet frameworks
•Climate Change (UNFCCC) - Bangladesh, Mongolia, Nepal, Niue,
Pakistan, Viet Nam

National Capacity Self-Assessments (NCSAs)
National Capacity Self-Assessment for the
Global Environmental Management
(NCSA)
Objective:
To assist countries in identifying their capacity development needs
and priorities to manage the three Rio Conventions (UNFCCC, CBD
& UNCCD) giving particular attention to synergies between the
conventions
Expected Results of the NCSA Initiative:
An Action Plan of priorities following a detailed assessment
A more
integrated approach to dealing with the global environment
issues (conventions) and enhanced awareness of their inter
linkages
An
interim coordination mechanism that may lead to a more
sustainable legal and institutional frameworks
UNEP/GEF Support to NCSAs
