Accelerating Least Developed Countries’ access to climate finance
Rural people in Least Developed Countries (LDCs) disproportionately suffer from the ever-increasing impacts of climate change, but they are the least prepared to respond to the crisis. Investments in climate-resilient agriculture are key to driving sustainable, low-emission development in LDCs, which are low-income countries with scarce resources and high economic vulnerability.
Working alongside National Designated Authorities (NDAs), FAO accelerates access to climate finance for Green Climate Fund (GCF) projects that deliver long-lasting impact by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing the climate resilience of vulnerable communities and ecosystems.
