  • Local actors ready to act: six proposals to improve their access to the Green Climate Fund

    Both ENDS

    Local initiatives help people - and the environment on which their livelihoods depend – to adapt to climate shocks and changes. Unfortunately, local climate action is grossly underfunded. The vast majority of climate finance tends to be channelled to large financial institutions focusing on large-scale projects that do not necessarily build upon or support – and often even counteract — local efforts. The role of local actors in climate finance decision-making processes is often very limited.

  • The Green Climate Fund: A CSO guide for engagement and local access

    Both ENDS, Aksi! & The Samdhana Institute

    The Green Climate Fund’s aim is to be the largest climate finance fund by 2020, investing in climate adaptation and mitigation projects in developing countries. It is critical to ensure that the GCF funding mechanism works to benefit those who need it most – the communities living at the frontlines of climate change and must be designed to reflect local realities and be led by local actors’ knowledge in order to be effective and sustainable.

    The Green Climate Fund’s aim is to be the largest climate finance fund by 2020, investing in climate adaptation and mitigation projects in developing countries. It is critical to ensure that the GCF funding mechanism works to benefit those who need it most – the communities living at the frontlines of climate change and must be designed to reflect local realities and be led by local actors’ knowledge in order to be effective and sustainable. Decision making and implementation must be genuinely gender sensitive and responsive to women’s needs. Women’s voices and leadership is critical to ensure this happens.

    This guide informs and prepares women’s rights and environmental CSO leaders for engagement with the Green Climate Fund. The guide shares the authors’ experience advocating with GCF both globally and within Indonesia. It outlines the two options available to CSO leaders: engage in the decision making to ensure the funding will be spent most effectively in country; and accessing the funding directly. In addition, small grants fund The Samhana Institute shares openly their learning’s on its ongoing GCF accreditation process.

    In opdracht van de Gemeente Utrecht heeft Purple Minds een onderzoek gedaan naar de hiaten in de verbinding tussen de zorg en de sport in Utrecht: op welke wijze kan beweegaanbod via zorgaanbieders een sterkere rol spelen in de zorg aan kwetsbare burgers en wat moet hiervoor gebeuren? Gezien de aankomende transities in het sociale domein (decentralisatie) en het centraler komen te staan van burgerkracht, een zeer actueel en interessant thema. Door desk research en zowel interne als externe interviews heeft Purple Minds de ondervonden belemmeringen in kaart gebracht en de gemeente een handelingsadvies gegeven.
