North Macedonia (Republic of North Macedonia)

<p>The project aims to strengthen climate resilience in the Western Balkans, covering Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia, by fostering regional cooperation and innovation for climate adaptation. It supports locally led, scalable solutions addressing floods, droughts, and heatwaves, while promoting knowledge exchange, innovation finance, and inclusive participation. Through ecosystem-based and technology-driven approaches, it enhances livelihoods, ecosystems, and regional collaboration for long-term climate resilience.</p>

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.

Mobilising private sector climate finance is an urgent priority to enable vulnerable countries to move towards a climate-resilient future rapidly.

This programme aims to achieve a systemic transformation of the financial sector in 13 countries by providing concessional financing for climate change mitigation and adaptation projects for small and medium enterprises, housing associations, municipalities, public utilities, and others.

Building upon Green Economy Financing Facility (FP025), it aims to leverage existing networks in each of the participating countries to develop climate-compatible financial systems, so that five per cent of banking sector assets, amounting to USD 180 billion, will be channeled to Paris-aligned pathways by the tenth year of programme implementation.

The programme comprises a lending envelope of USD 620 million for banks, microfinancing institutions and leasing companies, and a grant-funded technical assistance facility of USD 49 million to assist financial institutions with developing green transition plans. To foster gender-inclusive development and greater economic inclusion, the programme intends to commit at least 20 per cent of the loans to women or women-led businesses and 30 per cent to end borrowers outside the countries’ main cities.

The objective of this project is to assist the Republic of North Macedonia in the preparation and submission of its First Biennial Transparency Report and a combined Second Biennial Transparency and Fifth National Communication Report (BTR1 and BTR2/NC5) for the fulfillment of the obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement (PA), in line with the Modalities, Procedures and Guidelines (MPGs) for the transparency framework for action and support referred to in Article 13 of the Paris Agreement (Decision 18/CMA .1) and the guidance on operationalizing the MPGs as per Decision 5/CMA.3. The project will support the Republic of North Macedonia in achieving its global environment concerns and commitments to international conventions, and to integrate climate change considerations in national development planning and policy through ensuring continuity of the institutional and technical capacity building, partly initiated, and consequently sustained by reporting instruments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
