About the Partnership

Background:

Following the Technical Workshop on Project Preparation for Transformational Climate Resilience Water Project Concepts in Asa on 15-16 October 2018 in Manila, participants expressed a strong desire to continue collaborating after the workshop across countries and with partners to share experiences and support one another as they advanced their project ideas to GCF concept note stage.

Responding to this desire, partners of this workshop laid the foundation for the partnership for climate resilient water project development in Asia to provide a platform for countries to exchange knowledge and lessons as their experience in preparing, financing, and implementing water projects grows, particularly in the context of the GCF.

The partnership aims to provide a structured resource for Asian countries to continue accessing strategic and technical support to prioritize and prepare climate resilient water projects via a facilitated, flexible mechanism that enables peer to peer and demand-driven technical assistance with NDAs, DAEs, national water agencies in collaboration with technical partners. Co-organizers and participants of the workshop, and relevant entities beyond, are invited to join the partnership.
