The Climate Finance Innovation Facility (CFIF) of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) provides funding to engage the finance industry in climate sectors such as Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. Developing country financial insitutions can apply for funding here to develop climate focused financial products and services.
This is the third call for proposals to provide funding support to such projects for financial institutions in developing countries of the Asia-Pacific.
A broad range of activities are eligible for support, ranging from feasibility studies, to market assessments and legal reviews. The overall aim of CFIF is to help mobilise a scaling up of financial flows into climate change solutions. More broadly, by encouraging early action within the finance community, the facility helps cultivate on-the-ground leadership amongst financial actors that can have replication effects across markets and geographies.
Deadline: 30 September 2012
