Also available in:
No results found.Social protection is a powerful tool for delivering inclusive climate action, particularly in rural areas of low-income countries. This briefing paper presents the findings of a review of social protection for rural populations within the Green Climate Fund (GCF) portfolio. This analysis of 23 GCF-funded projects outlines both promising approaches and key challenges.Building on these insights, the GCF should scale up the use of social protection, enhancing gender and inclusion efforts, strengthening long-term system building and cross-sectoral coordination, and fostering global partnerships for financing and knowledge-sharing. Through these efforts, the GCF can play a pivotal role in ensuring climate finance reaches the most vulnerable, driving sustainable, inclusive, and just climate action -

Also available in:
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is a new global fund created by the countries, parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to support the efforts of developing countries to respond to the challenge of climate change. GCF seeks to promote a paradigm shift to low-emission and climate-resilient development, accounting for the needs of nations that are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts. The principle of Country Ownership is at the heart of the work the GCF conducts in the developing world. The Fund also recognizes that country ownership is a continual process, and that National Designated Authorities (NDAs) have a key role in driving institutional development and stakeholder engagement for establishing effective mechanism that addresses climate-related issues. This factsheet is jointly developed by the Cabinet of the Deputy President of the Government of North Macedonia in charge of Economic Affairs, in its role as NDA to GCF and FAO in the frames of the project “Support for the management of an effective national coordinative mechanism regarding the Green Climate Fund. It is intended to familiarize all relevant national stakeholders (institutions, government agencies, academia, private sector, civil society and international organizations) in North Macedonia about the key aspects of country ownership in the work of the GCF, the GCF Project approval cycle and No-Objection procedure in North Macedonia, exercised by the NDA to ensure that financing through the GCF will be transparent, consistent with national climate priorities, strategies, plans, is country-driven, effective and leaves no one behind. -

BookletCorporate general interestEmissions due to agriculture
Global, regional and country trends 2000–2018
2021Also available in:
No results found.The FAOSTAT emissions database is composed of several data domains covering the categories of the IPCC Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector of the national GHG inventory. Energy use in agriculture is additionally included as relevant to emissions from agriculture as an economic production sector under the ISIC A statistical classification, though recognizing that, in terms of IPCC, they are instead part of the Energy sector of the national GHG inventory. FAO emissions estimates are available over the period 1961–2018 for agriculture production processes from crop and livestock activities. Land use emissions and removals are generally available only for the period 1990–2019. This analytical brief focuses on overall trends over the period 2000–2018.
