Guidebook: Mobilising Private Sector Finance for Climate Change Adaptation

The guidebook provides guidance in requisite tools and methodologies required for developing bankable adaptation projects along with information on alternate funding sources and investment models available to the private sector to mobilise funds for climate change adaptation.

It has been drafted to resemble the typical three-stage approach which any adaptation project development process would follow: (1) designing a climate change adaptation project, (2) securing project funding, and (3) project implementation. Each chapter of the guidebook details out the procedure proposed for project proponents to adopt while conceptualising and/or developing adaptation projects. It includes anecdotal references and best practices observed both in India and globally.

While the guidebook serves as a comprehensive source of information for planning an adaptation project, it is recommended that project proponents also take in to account the recent developments in the area of planning an adaptation project.
