Supporting FEICOM in accessing funding

Making FEICOM the first Camerounese organisation to obtain a Green Climate Fund accreditation

An initiative of FMDV – Global Fund for Cities Development

Overview of the project

FEICOM is a Cameroonian administration in charge of local development.

The initiative aims at supporting the FEICOM in its objective to get more access to climate funds. After a study piloted by the FMDV, in partnership with the RIAFCO (Network of African Finance institutions for local governments) and UNCDF, financed by the PPIAF and the World Bank, about the possibilities for FEICOM to access climate finance, an action plan for its access to the Green Climate Fund was presented.

The initiatives’ objective is now to accompany the FEICOM in this process to become the first entity to have an accreditation for the GCF in Cameroon, and more generally in Africa.
