The Green Climate Fund (GCF), a pivotal initiative in combating climate change, has made headlines in March 2024 for several significant developments. The Biden-Harris Administration announced a substantial pledge of $3 billion to GCF for its Second Replenishment (2024-2027), marking a commitment to leading global efforts in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to climate changes. This pledge is expected to bolster the GCF’s capabilities in supporting developing countries through the energy transition and resilience building against climate impacts. Additionally, the GCF disclosed a series of investments and partnerships aimed at fostering climate action in developing nations, including a notable USD 100 million investment partnership with Somalia and a USD 1.26 billion allocation for broader climate action across the developing world. Projects like Bio-CLIMA further illustrate GCF’s targeted efforts to address deforestation and enhance resilience in critical biospheres. These moves represent a multifaceted approach to climate finance, emphasizing both immediate investments and long-term commitments to environmental sustainability and resilience ​​.
