Scaling-up public private co-investments for climate action in agrifood systems

This readiness grant will prepare country stakeholders to catalyze investments by leveraging the support of private investment platforms similar to the likes of the Co- Investment platform for Food Systems Transformation (CiP), established by the EAT Foundation, Citizen’s Climate International and the Good Food Finance Network.

The platform aims to alter the scale and direction of food finance by bringing together various capital types and actors from multilateral, public-private, and philanthropic finance. The readiness support also builds on the private sector engagement approach under the UNDP-FAO SCALA programme that aims to expedite implementation of agriculture priorities specified within national climate plans of developing countries.
