Indonesia First Mitigation Fiscal Framework (UNDP)

Climate public expenditure and institutional reviews (CPEIR) have been carried out in a number of Asian countries, with several others well underway in Africa and Latin America. These studies help countries to align national climate policies with national development policies and budgets. They also indicate that very significant levels of national spending are already contributing towards addressing climate change.

Investment & Financial Flows (I&FF) Methodology (UNDP)

Building upon the UNFCCC's global, top down analysis of the costs of climate change, UNDP commissioned a User Guidebook to support developing countries to undertake a bottom-up, national sectoral analyses of the costs of adapting to the impacts of climate change and mitigating GHG emissions. The User Guidebook, which was developed by UNDP with a group of international experts and regional centres of excellence, comprises:

At Cross-Purposes: Subsidies and climate-compatible investment (ODI)

This paper highlights the implications of the current separation of the discourses on private climate finance (PCF) and on subsidies, and the opportunities that exist to unlock climate-compatible investment by linking these fields. Though climate finance aims to enable climate compatible development (CCD), this paper points out that, within developing countries, subsidies to fossil fuels (alone) currently dwarf any efforts toward CCD through climate finance.  

Seychelles Water & Sanitation (EIB)

Seychelles is suffering from water scarcity due to the concentration of rainfall in a short period within each year, its variability across different years, little groundwater availability and limited opportunities to expand storage capacity necessary to transfer water resources from the wet to the dry season. Therefore, the water supply system is highly vulnerable to meteorological conditions, which may be aggravated by greater rainfall variability linked with global climate variations. The underinvestment in water supply infrastructure has generated a decline in water service quality and in the efficiency of their provision, with high water losses and energy consumption. Sewage collection and treatment facilities are also very limited, posing a high threat to both public health and the environment.

The project consists of four parts:

  1. Renewal and expansion of the water supply systems on the 3 main islands of Seychelles to cover water deficits, improve water and energy efficiency and increase resilience to climate variation;
  2. Upgrading of the existing sewerage system on Mahé island, and the creation of new sanitation facilities on La Digue island to reduce the risk of contamination of groundwater used for the production of potable water;
  3. Implementation of water demand and resource management programmes including environmental and natural disaster risk management;
  4. Capacity building of the promoter through technical assistance and the provision of tools to implement and operate efficiently the water and sanitation facilities.

Fast Out of the Gate: How Developing Asian Countries Can Prepare to Access International Green Growth Financing (USAID)

The report reviews more than 200 public and private sector funds and mechanisms for financing projects, businesses, and infrastructure in the Asia region that mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases and thereby address climate change. The study aims to help Asian policymakers, public and private fund managers, banks, and even local communities identify ways to fund low-carbon development.
