ENVIRONMENTAL AID

• At the 1992 Earth Summit, the international community


estimated that Approximately $6.1 billion a year of water
and sanitation aid would be needed to satisfy global
needs.
• UN Development Program estimates that it will cost about
$10 billion annually for low cost sustainable technology
with an Increase of 20-30 billion for universal access
depending on the technology to achieve the Millennium
Development Goal of halving the proportion of people
without access to water and sanitation by 2015
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is a fund for climate finance that was established within the
framework of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
Considered the world's largest fund of its kind, GCF's objective is to assist
developing countries with climate change adaptation and mitigation activities.[1] The GCF is an
operating entity of the financial mechanism of the UNFCCC. It is based in Songdo, Incheon,
South Korea. It is governed by a Board of 24 members and supported by a Secretariat.

The Green Climate Fund supports projects and other activities in developing countries
using thematic funding windows.[3] It is intended that the Green Climate Fund be the
centrepiece of efforts to raise climate finance under the UNFCCC. There are four other,
smaller multilateral climate funds for paying out money in climate finance which are
coordinated by the UNFCCC. These include the Adaptation Fund (AF), the Least Developed
Countries Fund (LDCF), the Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF) and the
Global Environment Facility (GEF). The GCF is the largest of these five funds.[4][5]
As of Dec 2023, the GCF had a portfolio of 13.5 billion USD (51.9 billion USD including co-
financing).[6]
