opportunities that support climate change adaptation, mitigation as well as key sustainable development co-benefits such as biodiversity conservation, environmental protection, poverty reduction and gender equality. The OF supports the further elaboration
of projects with private sector partners through the provision of TA for project design, feasibility assessments, piloting, and other activities which de-risk and enable the graduation of projects for commercial investment.
