Climate-resilient agriculture
Request to CTCN to help catalyse private sector financing for adaptation
Challenge/Request:• Climate variability
reducing viability of key crops
• Distribution and drying technologies can strengthen productive viability
• But investment is required to pilot and scale up these technologies.
CTCN Response:1. Strengthen
business plan and financial case
2. Identify and introduce local producers to private investors
3. Train local producers for sales pitch to private investors
Result: Help to catalyse private sector financing for adaptation
Request Incubator Programme for LDCs
The Programme provides tailored support to Least Developed Countries to:
• Access CTCN technical assistance services
• Coordinate and scale-up national activities related to climate technologies
• Identify funding mechanisms for deploying climate technologies in their countries
• Better measure country’s progress and demonstrate concrete achievements for climate technologies
12 participating countries:
• Bangladesh• Benin• Central African
Republic• Equatorial Guinea• Gambia• Guinea • Malawi• Nepal• Rwanda• Senegal• Tanzania• Uganda
