The GEF
 Financial mechanism of four Multilateral
Environment Agreements
 Track-record on investments over more than 15
years
 Strong financing and leveraging performance
 Innovative programs
 Expanding responsibilities – POPs, Land
degradation, Adaptation Funds
The GEF
 Guidance from Conventions
 Governance
– Assembly
– Council
– GEF Focal points & Link to Conventions FP
– Secretariat and Agencies
– Other partners
 Balanced decision making between developing
and developed countries
GEF Focal Areas
 Climate change
 Biological diversity
 International waters
 Land degradation, primarily desertification and
deforestation
 Ozone layer depletion
 Persistent organic pollutants
Climate Change Mitigation –
main achievements
 $2.5 billion invested in more
than 130 countries
– Climate Change Mitigation : energy
efficiency, renewable energies, clean
transport, Sustainable Forest
Management and LULUCF
– National communications to the
UNFCCC
– Technology Needs Assessments
– Transfer of more than 30
environmentally sound technologies
– More than 2.5 billion tons of CO2
avoided from GEF projects
5
Adaptation to Climate Change –
main achievements
Least Developed Country Fund



48 NAPAs financed, 42 completed
33 concrete adaptation projects
approved, 9 under implementation
and at least 12 more by the end of
2009
$369 million total ($113 LDCF and
$256 co-financing )
Strategic Climate Change Fund


22 concrete adaptation projects
approved, 13 under implementation
$683 million total ($91 SCCF and
$592 co-financing)

GEF in Africa
 Since 1991, GEF has invested in
750 Projects in Africa
 Total amount invested by the GEF
in Africa : $2.3 billion
 Africa represents nearly 30% of
the global GEF funding
GEF Amount B$

GEF in Africa
Climate Change
 230 projects in Climate Change
 Total GEF Amount = $600 million in Climate Change
 Adaptation to climate change : projects to adapt
agriculture and water management, fight desertification,
prevent coastal erosion, cope with drought, flooding and
sea level rise
 Forest and climate change : projects to develop
sustainable forest management through local communities
 Climate change mitigation : projects to develop renewable
energy (solar, biomass, mini-hydro, wind…), energy
efficiency (CFL programs…) and clean transport.
 Regional projects to have synergies on regional issues
(forest..)

Adaptation Fund
 Secretariat (interim)
 Organize Board Meeting
 Undergoing work to make operational
 Monetization
 Modalities for direct access
 Administrative issues with trustee and
secretariat
Challenges for GEF-5
 Increase the level of replenishment
 Strengthen the GEF through a significant
set of reforms
Responsiveness to Conventions
From RAF to STAR and other technical
and operational improvements
Governance, engagement with
countries and stakeholders
 Reflect the new international context
 Meet expectations of stakeholders
