The UNDP-AFCIA programme operated within the framework of the multi-partner platform known as the Adaptation Innovation Marketplace (AIM). Launched by UNDP Administrator Achim Steiner in 2021, this strategic platform is designed to advance scaled-up adaptation efforts at the local level, with a specific focus on civil society, non-governmental organizations and women entrepreneurs and young people. The marketplace aggregates resources, expertise and technical support to facilitate local access to climate change adaptation finance.
The UNDP-AFCIA programme was supported by financial contributions from the Adaptation Fund and the European Union. In its first phase (2020-2025) it granted 44 micro and small grants to locally led organizations in 33 countries worldwide, accelerating their innovative solutions to enhance resilience in the most vulnerable communities.
AFCIA is implemented by different Multilateral Implementing Entities (MIEs): UNDP, UNEP-CTCN, UNIDO, WFP and the Pacific Community. For more information, please visit the AFCIA community website.
