The Climate Change Fund (CCF) was established in May 2008 to facilitate greater investments in developing member countries (DMCs) to effectively address the causes and consequences of climate change, by strengthening support to low-carbon and climate-resilient development in DMCs. The fund focuses on three areas: (i) adaptation; (ii) clean energy development; and (iii) reduced emission from deforestation and degradation and improved land use management.
