To promote sustainable land management practices in rice landscapes that support the achievement of Liberia’s voluntary LDN targets

Local CSOs and CBOs in landscapes-seascapes around the world access grant financing and technical assistance, including capacity development and knowledge sharing to maintain and enhance their socio-ecological resilience, well-being and socio-economic conditions for global environmental benefits.

Building climate resilience in natural-source dependent rural communities of Liberia through system-based, transformational adaptation in agricultural, fisheries and ecotourism sectors

Indicators and targets (mid-term; end of project targets):

Mandatory Indicator 1: # direct project beneficiaries disaggregated by gender (individual people) : [33,153 (14,466 men and 18,687 women); 99,460 (43,400 men and 56,060 women i.e 56.36% of women)]

Indicator 2: LCDF Core indicator 2: Area of land/coastal or marine area managed for climate resilience (hectares): (800 ha; 3,640.00 ha)

Sub indicators: 
-	3.4 Number of institutional partnerships or coordination mechanisms established or strengthened: (1; 3)

Indicator 4: LCDF Core indicator 4: Number of people trained or with awareness raised
Sub indicators: 
-	4.1 Number of people trained or made aware of climate change impacts and appropriate adaptation responses (sex disaggregated) at different target groups): [40,900 (18,400 men and 22,500 women); 81,800 (36,800 men and 45,000 women)]

Indicator 5: LCDF Core indicator 5: Number of private sector enterprises engaged in climate change adaptation and resilience action
Sub indicators: 
-	5.1 Amount of investment mobilized (US$) from private sector sources: [0; 500,000 USD (non-grant financing secured)]
-	5.4 Number of MSMEs incubated/accelerated with technical assistance, financial matchmaking, and/or direct financing: (7; 30)

560 million people in the sub-Saharan region live without electricity and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future without adequate intervention. Investment barriers such as risky and nascent market, hard-to-reach locality, and lack of supporting infrastructure keep traditional off-grid solar companies from investing in projects that could benefit hard-to-reach communities. The unelectrified communities of these countries risk being trapped in energy poverty and climate vulnerability. Delivering clean, affordable, and climate-resilient energy to these vulnerable communities will be a crucial component of climate action not only in the sub-Saharan region, but for the African continent.

The H2R programme aims to provide affordable and green energy access to first-time users in low-income populations in 16 countries in Africa. The programme will support off-grid solar companies to enter and grow in these underserved markets by providing flexible financing that matches the needs of the companies. The programme seeks to mobilise a blend of donor and private finance to deliver off-grid solar solutions to least developed communities via pay-as-you-go financing methods. The goal is to close a historically persistent energy gap in sub-Saharan countries, thereby contributing to a more just and inclusive energy systems transition.

Technical assistance through the GCF Project Preparation Facility (PPF) was deployed to support the Accredited Entity in the development of this project's funding proposal (FP).
