Financing Adaptation
Between now and 2030, world energy demand is projected to grow by 1.6 percent annually, adding up to a dramatic 45 percent increase
Transfer of Environmentally Sound Technologies: The GEF Experience
The GEF, over its 17-year history, has extensive experience in the transfer of climate change mitigation and adaptation technologies. A total of around $2.5 billion has been allocated to support climate change projects in over 100 countries. Transfer of environmentally sound technologies is playing a crucial role in the global response to climate change. Lessons learned at the GEF will help improve the efficiency and efficacy of future efforts to transfer ESTs to developing countries
Financing Adaptation Action
The GEF received the mandate from the Climate Convention in 2001 to finance adaptation projects on the ground. This publication illustrates the types of adaptation projects financed by the GEF and the lesson learned from the first experiences on the ground
