International Organizations and Vertical Funds

In Bhutan, UNDP remains a vital implementation and policy partner to key vertical funds, such as the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and Green Climate Fund (GCF). In recent years, UNDP supported the Royal Government in securing USD 25,347,194 from GCF to support climate resilience and transformational change in the agriculture sector. This is the largest climate adaptation fund Bhutan ever secured. UNDP is providing technical assistance in the implementation of the project.

We also helped mobilize US$3 million support from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to promote Sustainable Low-emission Urban Transport System. The Ministry of Information and Communications is implementing the project with support from UNDP.
