Mechanism for financing local adaptation to climate change — Performance-based climate resilience grants — Requirements and guidelines

Abstract

This document establishes an approach and methodology for a country-based mechanism to channel
climate finance to subnational authorities to support climate change adaptation and to increase
local resilience thereby contributing to the achievement of the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement of
the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the UN Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). The country-based mechanism uses performance-based climate resilience
grants (PBCRGs) which ensure programming and verification of climate change expenditures at the
local level, offering strong incentives for performance improvements in enhanced resilience.
This document provides requirements and guidelines and is applicable to organizations such as national
and subnational authorities, donors, companies, financial institutions and international organizations
that are involved in implementing a country-based mechanism for channelling climate finance to
subnational authorities to support climate change adaptation and resilience.
NOTE Another mechanism for supporting local adaptation is by direct support at the local level by donors
without any financial flows from national government.
