The NCDD Secretariat (NCDD-S), with support from UNCDF, gained direct access to the Green Climate Fund (GCF) in 2019 and has been supported to submit a GCF Funding Proposal building on the PBCRGs and covering up to 15 districts. UNCDF continues to provide support to Cambodia in mobilizing additional resources for scaling up PBCRGs nationwide.
Given its mandate, NCDD-S plays a vital role in ensuring that local governments are actively engaged in national climate strategies. Its role in coordinating governance at the provincial, district, and commune levels makes it the ideal partner to support the LoCAL program, which seeks to enhance local governments’ capacity to adapt to climate change. Through supporting by the UNCDF, Cambodia, alongside Bhutan, were the first countries selected by UNCDF to pilot performance-based climate resilience grants (PBCRGs) more than a decade ago; their efforts served to validate the approach. The objective of the LoCAL-Cambodia initiative, which features under the Local Governments and Climate Change Project (LGCC), is to demonstrate the role of local governments in fostering climate change resilience and identify practical ways to mainstream climate change resilience into subnational planning and finance systems.
