GEF-6 Strategy for Cross-Cutting Capacity Development GEF Expanded Constituency Workshop Managua, Nicaragua March 3-4, 2015

“The process by which individuals, organizations and societies strengthen their ability to address environmental issues, manage natural resource issues, and mainstream environmental sustainability into development policies, plans and decisions.” What is meant by capacity development (CD)?

GEF STRATEGIC APPROACH TO CAPACITY BUILDING Four pathways to develop countries’ capacity to implement the Rio Conventions (Council Decision C/22.8) Capacity Development (CD) through: 1. National Capacity Self- Assessments (NCSAs) 2. Greater attention to CD in individual projects 3. Cross-cutting CD projects 4. Critical Programs for CD in LDCs & SIDS Strategic focus for CD (GEF)

National Capacity Self-Assessments: Results, Lessons Learned, Opportunities 4 1. National Capacity Self- Assessments (NCSAs)

Very relevant to address capacity gaps identified in NCSAs. Projects have strengthened multi-sectoral processes, promoted policy and legislation harmonization, and mainstreamed global environmental issues. They used a holistic approach to develop the required capacities; addressing existing bottlenecks, and lack of skills and knowledge. 23 CB2 projects in GEF-4 – Independent assessment

To help countries meet and sustain global environmental outcomes by strengthening key capacities that address challenges and remove barriers common to the MEAs that the GEF serves and to mainstream the global environment into decision making. GEF-6 CCCD Overall Goal (available 34 M USD)

CCCD-1: To integrate global environmental needs into management information systems and monitoring. CCCD-2: To strengthen consultative and management structures and mechanisms. CCCD-3: To integrate Multilateral Environmental Agreements’ provisions within national policy, legislative, and regulatory frameworks. CCCD-4: To pilot innovative economic and financial tools for Convention implementation. CCCD-5: Updating of National Capacity Self-Assessments. Strategic Objectives

Strengthen the capacities of LDCs and SIDS. Identified in GEF-funded National Capacity Self-Assessments (NCSA). Introduce innovative approaches to improve implementation of conventions. Be results-based, leading to measurable, sustainable capacity outcomes, and include a set of monitoring indicators Contribute to cost-efficiency through promoting harmonization and operational effectiveness in Convention obligations. Create synergies in the implementation of the three Rio conventions and other MEAs. Strengthen environmental governance Be complementary with ongoing or planned GEF initiatives. Priorities and focus for GEF6 CCCD
