PPCR Pilot Programs

The Pilot Program for Climate Resilience aims to demonstrate ways to integrate climate risk and resilience into core development planning, whiles complementing other ongoing activities. 

 
The pilot programs implemented under the PPCR should be:
 
  • country led;
  • build on National Adaptation Programs of Action (NAPAs) and other relevant country studies and strategies;
  • complement the existing adaptation funding and be supportive of the emerging operations of the Adaptation Fund; and
  • support actions that are both an outcome of a comprehensive planning process and consistent with the countries' development and poverty reduction goals.  

Under the PPCR two types of investments are supported: 

 

1) Funding for technical assistance to enable developing countries to build upon existing national work to integrate climate resilience into national and sectoral development plans.
2) Funding public and private sector investments indentified in national or sectoral development plans or strategies and addressing climate resilience.

 

Immediate outcomes of a PPCR program should include:

 

•    an increased capacity to integrate climate resilience into country development strategies
•    a more inclusive approach to climate resilient growth and development;
•    an increased awareness of the potential impact of climate change;
•    scaled-up investment for broader interventions and programming related to climate resilience; and
•    improved coordination among stakeholders regarding country-specific climate resilient programs.

 

 

The following nine countries and two regions have been invited to date:
