CIF is a pioneering multilateral climate fund delivering low-cost finance to over 80 developing countries.
About us
CIF is one of the world’s largest multilateral funds helping low- and middle-income countries adapt to and mitigate climate change. Since 2008, it has been channeling funds from government donors and the private sector to support more than 360 projects in over 80 countries. Its launch emerged from recognition by world leaders that climate change and development are inextricably intertwined, and that climate-smart investment is needed at scale to deliver on the opportunities for green growth identified in the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Working in partnership with governments, the private sector, civil society, local communities, and six major multilateral development banks (MDBs), CIF provides highly competitive financing that reduces risk for investors, lowering barriers to piloting new technologies, scaling up proven solutions, opening up sustainable markets, and mobilizing private sector capital for climate action. Rallying stakeholders behind increasingly ambitious climate goals and complementary action, CIF draws in diverse partners who might otherwise be deterred from investing alone.

With the support of the Climate Investment Funds and The World Bank, the Kasepuhan people now enjoy sustainable living, vibrant vegetable gardens, and thriving women-led businesses. This transformation has not only enhanced their food security but also reinforced their connection to the forest that sustains them.

Since 2009, CIF’s Dedicated Grant Mechanism (DGM) has allocated more than $70 million under the Forest Investment Program to empower #IndigenousPeoples and Local Communities (#IPLCs) to sustainably manage natural resources, restore land access, and fight climate change applying local and traditional knowledge. DGM is implemented by our partners at The World Bank, with funding reaching communities directly thanks to a unique governance model conceived and managed by the IPLCs themselves. In 2023, CIF approved $40 million in grant funding to support IPLCs to advance climate action in countries selected as part of the Nature, People and Climate program: #Brazil, the #DominicanRepublic, #Egypt, #Ethiopia, #Fiji, #Kenya, #Rwanda, and Africa’s #ZambeziRiver Basin region. ➡ https://lnkd.in/eh29jefC
