Our Programme has been very active in this context and we are pleased to share with you some of the highlights of our activities.

IPCC Report Part III reiterates call to support vulnerable countries facing the magnitude of climate change
For the 79 OACPS member states, which are among the most vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change, the challenge of the COP27 in Sharm El Sheik, Egypt will be to reach a new milestone in the mobilisation of financing for scaling up adaptation, in response to the recent alarming reports of the IPCC.

OVERVIEW OF THE KEY OUTCOMES OF COP26
From the OACPS perspective, the Outcomes of COP 26 are modest, with some encouraging signs, rather than concrete outcomes on mitigation, adaptation, and loss and damage, as the OACPS had called for. Stronger approaches are needed to hold all actors accountable for the commitments made in Glasgow, and for agreeing on concrete implementation modalities.

The Programme’s objective is to strengthen the ACP countries’ capacity to build resilience to climate change, mitigate its effects, and adapt at the national and regional levels. It also supports the ACP region and countries to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the context of a changing climate. The programme is a €70 million initiative of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States. It is funded by the 11th European Development Fund (EDF). Of this amount, €65 million has been allocated to the regions. Another €4.5 million has been allocated for institutional support, including the ACP Secretariat and the Intra-ACP GCCA+ Climate Support Facility.
Our team manages the Climate Support Facility and supports the ACP Secretariat with coordination, implementation, monitoring, knowledge management, communication and strategic dialogue.
Climate change does not recognize international boundaries. The Intra-ACP GCCA+ runs regional projects and programmes to address issues relating to climate change.
