The Commonwealth Climate Finance Access Hub helps countries to unlock the available climate finance.
Small states, Least Developed Countries and other vulnerable counties face acute impacts of climate change in a disproportional way. As much as climate finance is being made available to developing countries through a number of international initiatives, most of these countries have limited capacity to access these funds.
The Commonwealth Climate Finance Access Hub (CCFAH) helps countries to unlock the available climate finance. Through this initiative, small and vulnerable member states are assisted to bid for and gain increased access to climate finance.
The process is achieved through supporting the development of grant proposals and project pipelines; building human and institutional capacity; providing technical advisory services; and facilitating cross-Commonwealth cooperation and sharing of experiences and expertise by Commonwealth National Climate Finance Advisers who are deployed and embedded in relevant government ministry departments.
