Climate Change Commission Secretary Robert E. A. Borje meets Green Climate Fund (GCF) officials at the GCF headquarters in Incheon, South Korea on April 27, 2022. The Climate Change Commission (CCC) and the GCF agree to work more closely together to ensure facilitated access to climate finance for climate change adaptation and mitigation projects in the Philippines. During the meeting, GCF officials, led by Carolina Fuentes, the fund’s Director of the Division of Country Programming, vowed to remove identified gridlocks in the project approval process, extend assistance for capacity building, as well as provide technical assistance to the Philippines. Secretary Borje said it is important to support practical, pragmatic and easy to monitor projects that can be easily scaled up to ensure success and gain wide public support for green development projects. GCF is a global platform aimed at responding to climate change by investing in low-emission and climate-resilient development. It was established by 194 governments to limit or reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in developing countries, and to help vulnerable societies adapt to the unavoidable impacts of climate change.
