GEF-6 Climate Change Mitigation Strategy Goal: support developing countries and economies in transition toward a low-emission develop. path Program 1: Promote timely development, demonstration and financing of low-carbon technologies and mitigation options CC1 – Promote Innovation, Technology Transfer and Supportive Policies and Strategies Program 2: Develop and demonstrate innovative policy pack. and market initiatives to foster new range of mitig. actions Program 3: Promote integrated low-emission urban systems CC2 – Demonstrate Systematic Program 4: Promote conservation and enhancement of carbon Impacts of Mitigation Options stocks in forest, and other land-use, and support climate smart agriculture Program 5: Integrate findings of convention obligations and CC3 – Foster Enabling Conditions to Mainstream Mitigation into SD enabling activities into national planning processes and mitigation targets Strategies

What can GEF fund in the waste sector Technology innovation in waste – pre-commercial demo & deployment w/ focus on 1. technology risk reduction. • Countries/ sectors/ technologies with large GHG emission reductions potential • Collaboration w/ stakeholders National policies & mechanisms to bring (waste management) tech/ practices to scale 2. • Macro-economic packages – polluter pays, carbon tax etc • Performance-based payments; risk mitigation; Urban systems 3. • Integrated urban approaches - eg sustainable production & consumption – energy efficiency; methane; POPs Private sector set aside: $ 110 million – approaches to attract PS funding. 4.
