Brief summary of the request

Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF) was accredited to GCF in its 18th board meeting on 29 September to 03 October, 2017. PKSF works through national and local level NGOs largely known as Partner Organisations (POs). These organisations operate various project/programs including the project/programs relevant to climate change. In addition, various government departments and research institutes show their interest to work with PKSF as DAE of GCF. They are PKSF’s important stakeholders in addressing climate change adaptation and mitigation issues in national and local level.

Climate change is an emerging issue in Bangladesh. The current institutional set up of PKSF have limited capacity to integrate climate change in its project/program particularly project/program under GCF. The other stakeholders also lacks in capacity on designing and implementing projects for GCF. Because, addressing climate change requires technical know-how at all levels. PKSF also requires to improve ESS standards, Gender policy and Indigenous People’s Policy to meet the GCF standards at institutional level as well as project level. This readiness support will enhance capacities of PKSF’s and its PO’s staffs and relevant government departments on GCF mechanisms, policies and requirements for enhancing climate finance in the country. The expected outcomes and activities are: Outcome 1: Institutional capacity and coordination mechanisms in place to govern and coordinate climate action and finance capacity and coordination mechanisms in place to govern and coordinate climate action and Sub-outcome 1.1: Enhanced capacity on GCF modalities and procedures of DAE

Activity 1.1.1: Prepare and disseminate training manual on GCF modalities and procedures Activity 1.1.2 Organize two weeks long training on GCF modalities and procedures Activity 1.1.3 Strengthen 3 concept notes with strong climate rationale

Sub-outcome 1.2: Environmental and Social Safeguard (ESS) policy of PKSF is aligned with international standards particularly IFC Performance Standards (PS 1 to 8) Activity 1.2.1: Review and improve Environmental and Social Safeguard (ESS) policy of PKSF at international standards

Sub-outcome 1.3: Climate rationale, ESS, gender and IP component of PKSF and funding proposals strengthened

received consent from PKSF as DAE for GCF fund. The indirect beneficiary is mainly Economic Relation Division (ERD) as it is the NDA to GCF for Bangladesh. Besides other ministries and departments including Department of Environment (DOE), Bangladesh Water Development Board (BWDB), Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) as they would require technical support for preparing funding proposals and implementation of GCF funded projects in Bangladesh. In addition, NGOs will also be benefited through enhanced access to GCF in addressing climate change.

Has the country received or is expecting to receive other Readiness and Preparatory Support funding allocations (including adaptation planning) from GCF or other donors?

☒ Yes ☐ No Bangladesh has received 4 readiness supports from GCF in 2015, 2016 and 2018. The outcomes of the four approved readiness proposals are presented below:

1. Establishing and strengthening NDAs (Year: 2015, Delivery partner: GIZ) A. A dedicated website for the NDA Secretariat was developed to effectively

communicate and share information with the national and international Stakeholders. It is well functioning.

B. A strong knowledge base on international climate finance architecture with special focus on GCF and capacity for mobilizing fund for climate change activities have developed.

C. This support helped to implement policy level decisions, set-up processes and mechanisms as well as to coordinate effectively with key stakeholders.

2. Strategic frameworks for engagement with the Fund, including the preparation of country programmes (Year: 2015, Delivery partner: UNDP) A. Country coordination mechanism was strengthened for GCF related activities

particularly to implement Bangladesh’s programming priorities. B. A robust Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system was developed in order to

track progress, assess outcome/impact and to ensure accountability for use of resources.

3. Support for accreditation of direct access entities (Year: 2016, Delivery partner: PwC) A. It helped Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) to shift from

adhoc project based approach to a systematic integration of climate issues into its infrastructure planning, and implementation.

B. Moreover, it also helped LGED to enhance building resilient infrastructure which ultimately benefited vulnerable communities.

4. Formulation and Advancement of the National Adaptation Plan Process in Bangladesh (Year: 2018, Delivery partner: UNDP) A. This readiness proposal helped to strengthen the institutional coordination and

climate change information and knowledge management for medium- to long term planning.

B. A decision making tools integrating climate risk was developed and piloted by planning and budget departments at national and sectoral levels.

C. Also, a nationally appropriate adaptation investments tracking mechanism was set up and financial plan for mid- and long-term CCA implementation was prepared.

Information on Bangladesh Bank Proposal

Though Bangladesh Bank set up its first line of refinance scheme for green initiatives/products in 2009 which has been approved in 2019. The main aspect of this proposal is to make a paradigm shift in the policy horizon on green banking for Shariah Based Banks and FIs. The broad outcomes expected from this programme are policy component through drafting of evidence-based policy framework or a white paper on Shariah based green financing and an updated environmental and social risk management framework for the central bank, commercial banks, and financial institutions. The institutional capacity component includes capacity

2. BACKGROUND

The impacts of global warming and climate change in Bangladesh is irreversible. Already, the human suffering and cost to development is massive to this country and its people who are victims of human induced global warming. Between 1991 and 2000, 93 major disasters were recorded in Bangladesh, resulting in nearly 200,000 deaths and causing US $ 5.9 billion in damages with high losses in agriculture and infrastructure. Since then, the country is experiencing recurring floods frequently. The World Bank (2010) estimated that, by 2050, adaptation costs in relation to tropical cyclones and storm surges will be $5,516 million and the annual recurrent cost will be $112 million, while regarding inland monsoon flooding the cost will be $2671 million and the annual recurrent cost will be $54 million. It is estimated that Bangladesh will need to invest $44 billion from 2015 to 2030 in order to implement identified adaptation measures to address adverse impacts of climate change for tropical cyclone, monsoon flooding and climate related diseases (NDC, Bangladesh).

Bangladesh received readiness support to enhance capacity of the NDA in the context of institutions, policy and strategy formulations including preparing Country Program (CP), human resources development and other technical requirement of the NDA. But none of the project addressed the capacity needs of other key stakeholders including DAE, government departments and NGOs who are the key players of implementing climate change projects and programs at the field level. PKSF has developed Entity Work Program (EWP) in align with the CP. This EWP requires further improvement to make it more realistic and easily implementable.

In addition, number of public and private sector organisations proposed PKSF as DAE for their concepts which are included in the country programme. These concept notes should also to be strengthened. The organisations that proposed PKSF as DAE, require technical know-how and skills for transforming their concepts into full funding proposal. Thus implementation of the country programme relies on the capacity enhancement of PKSF as well as potential public and private sector organisations. This readiness fund will enhance capacity of these organisations on GCF’s activities particularly proposal development, fiduciary standards, ESS standards, gender action plan etc. Detailed outcomes and activities are describe below: Outcome 1: Institutional capacity and coordination mechanisms in place to govern and coordinate climate action and finance Sub-outcome 1.1 Enhanced capacity on GCF modalities and procedures of DAEs Activity 1.1.1: Prepare and disseminate training manual on GCF modalities and procedures

PKSF is an accredited national entity to GCF. Hence country’s access to GCF is particularly dependent on performance of PKSF on GCF activities. The proposed readiness support program will develop a training manual on GCF mechanism and procedure focusing on development of concept note and proposals, implementation procedures etc. ESS, Gender policy and IP will be an integral part of the manual. The training manual will be in English. But the delivery of the trainings may be in Bangla or mixed language (Bangla and English). The training manual will be developed for enhancing capacity of the staffs of PKSF, IDCOL, potential EEs and IEs as per priority in the country programme.

Activity 1.1.2: Organize two weeks long training on GCF modalities and procedures

Two weeks long sessions will be organized for this training. This training program will include process of getting access to GCF, development of concept notes and proposals, carry out ESS studies, preparation of gender assessment and action plan, gender log frame and the issues of indigenous people etc. Each of the documents will be exercised in groups for practical experience. Experts on GCF mechanism will be hired for providing this training. Twenty personnel of DAE (PKSF) and IDCOL will be trained on GCF modalities and procedures including project development, gender, ESS etc. 20 staffs of PKSF and IDCOL will participate in the training. PKSF’s staffs will be identified through internal circular. The relevant academics will be given priority. In case of IDCOL, PKSF will send invitation to IDCOL management for nomination of the trainees. These staffs will be able to support to develop concept notes and proposals for GCF as well as implementation of GCF financed project at the community level. They will also

Page 11: with Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF) for People's ...€¦ · Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 4 of 23 Brief summary of the request Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF)

Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 10 of 23

be educated on GCF’s compliances including ESS, gender and Indigenous people. During implementation of GCF projects by PKSF, these personnel will provide technical services to the project unit. Activity 1.1.3: Strengthened three concept notes with strong climate rationale Bangladesh NDA has developed Country Program (CP) for enhancing access to Green Climate Fund (GCF) over the next three years. The country program has identified 48 projects based on country’s needs and priorities. The country program was prepared through rigorous consultative process where various stakeholders including Ministries, government agencies, local government, NGOs (international, national and local level), the private sector and development partners. Being a DAE to GCF, PKSF is responsible to assist the NDA in implementing the CP. A number of concept notes are in the CP of Bangladesh. To transform these concepts into full funding proposal, PKSF requires technical persons having adequate knowledge on ESS, gender, indigenous people and understanding on GCF activities including proposal development. According to the country program, the priority concept notes of PKSF are: A6: Climate Resilient Livestock Production for the Climate Vulnerable Regions of Bangladesh, A7: Promoting Climate Resilient Aquaculture for Climate Vulnerable Poor People of Bangladesh, A10: Agriculture and Livelihood Adaptation to Drought in North-west High Barind Areas of Bangladesh, A25: Community Based Adaptation for Flood Prone Areas of Bangladesh, A26: Resilient Infrastructure to Combat Climate Change Impacts in Flash Flood Prone Haor Areas of Bangladesh and A27: Resilient Homestead and Livelihood support to the vulnerable coastal people of Bangladesh (RHL). Besides, Department of Cooperatives and Seed Certification Agency of the government of Bangladesh proposed PKSF as Executing Entity as well as Direct Access Entity in their concept notes titled A 21: Creation of Alternate Livelihood for Climate Victims through Cooperative Approaches in Haor Areas of Bangladesh and A22: Capacity Development for Climate Resilient Seed Certification in Bangladesh respectively. We have already submitted full funding proposal of A25, A26 and A27. We have also submitted concept note A6 which has already been reviewed by the GCF Secretariat and we are working on full funding proposal. Hence, the concept notes that need to be strengthened are A7, A10 and another one was developed by SNV Bangladesh which is titled ‘Catalysing Climate Change Investments in the Agricultural Sector Bangladesh’. PKSF will recruit specialists for strengthening 3 concept notes with strong climate rationale under this readiness support which in future transform into the funding proposals for GCF. This support will also recruit specialists to address ESS, gender and IP issues to strengthen those issues for preparing the concept note. Sub-outcome 1.2: Environmental and Social Safeguard (ESS) policy of PKSF is aligned with international standards particularly IFC Performance Standards (PS 1 to 8) Activity 1.2.1: Review and improve Environmental and Social Safeguard (ESS) policy of PKSF at international standards PKSF was accredited to GCF in environment and social category C/I-3. But some of PKSF’s projects in the country programme fall in category B. Hence, PKSF submitted an accreditation application to GCF for up-gradation from category C to B. Presently, PKSF has developed two separate documents for ensuring environmental and social safeguards of its projects and programmes. These are Environmental Management Framework (EMF) and Social Management Framework (SMP). These documents have lack in fulfilling requirements of category B/I-2 projects. This readiness support will help to prepare a standard ESS documents covering all the relevant IFC Performance Standards (PS1 to PS8) for implementing Category B project as GCF ESS follows these performance standards.

Sub-outcome 1.3: Climate rationale, ESS, gender and IP component of PKSF and funding proposals strengthened Activity 1.3.1 Review and strengthening of climate rationale, ESS, gender and IP components in three FPs

Page 12: with Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF) for People's ...€¦ · Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 4 of 23 Brief summary of the request Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation (PKSF)

Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 11 of 23

To support the implementation of the country program, PKSF has submitted funding proposals which includes A25: Community Based Adaptation for Flood Prone Areas of Bangladesh, A26: Resilient Infrastructure to Combat Climate Change Impacts in Flash Flood Prone Haor Areas of Bangladesh and A27: Resilient Homestead and Livelihood support to the vulnerable coastal people of Bangladesh (RHL). This readiness support will be helpful for PKSF in improving its ESS standards as well as gender and IP of the said three proposals. Hence, PKSF will recruit necessary consultants to improve ESS of PKSF as wells as ESS, gender and IP of the three funding proposals. Sub-outcome 1.4: Potential Executing/Implementing Entities enhanced capacity on GCF mechanism and procedure Activity 1.4.1 Organize two batches training sessions on GCF mechanism and procedure for IEs/EEs staffs PKSF is a Direct Access Entity (DAE) to GCF in Bangladesh. At the same time, PKSF is the Executing Entity (EE) for some projects. In addition, some government and non-government organisations having concept notes in the CP, proposed PKSF as their DAE. These organizations are treated as EE under this readiness support. PKSF will implement projects through partner organizations (POs). The POs will be the potential IEs. The staffs of these ogranizations will learn about GCF mechanism and procedures particularly requirement of ESS, gender and IP under GCF financed projects. They will also learn about development of concept notes and proposals for GCF. This initiative will strengthen EEs/IEs capacity in implementing GCF funded projects and programs at grass root level. It will ultimately increase the efficiency of GCF fund management at national and local level. PKSF will send invitation letter to the selected organizations as per the country programme for nomination of the trainees. The nominees by the organizations will take part in the training programme. The country programme has listed a total of 48 concepts. These concepts are divided into two parts. List A includes 28 concepts while list B includes 18 concepts. 12 concepts in list A (A5-A10, A21, A23, A24, A27-A29) proposed PKSF as DAE (Table 1, Page-3 of the CP). And 7 concepts from list B proposed PKSF as DAE (B1, B4, B6, B10-B12 and B14) (Table 1, Page-4 of the CP). So, a total of 19 concepts out of 48 proposed PKSF as DAE.

The POs are capable organisations working at the community level for a long time with PKSF. They have deep attachment with the community due to long time presence with the community and the services they provide. In addition, government’s ministries and departments are willing to work with PKSF as DAE. PKSF will select 20 organisations from government and NGO sectors considering “Bangladesh’s country programme for GCF 2018” for enhancing capacities of 40 (20x2) staffs on GCF activities for accelerating implementation of Bangladesh Country Programme to GCF. These organisations will be executing entities and implementing entities for GCF projects in Bangladesh. This will help the country to develop quality proposals as listed in “Bangladesh’s country programme for GCF 2018”. The consultants’ services will be procured following appropriate procurement process i.e. Public Procurement Rules, 2008. In addition to receive training, selected PKSF staffs will work with the consultants to internalize the technical know-how on GCF’s procedures. 1.4.2: Organize training in individual ministries Fourteen concept notes in the country programme submitted by the different government agencies/agencies proposed PKSF as their DAE. But none of them has been transformed into a full concept note so far. This is mainly due to lack of technical know-how on GCF mechanism and procedure. To institutionalize GCF mechanism and procedures in the government system, PKSF plans to provide training to seven individual departments particularly targeting the country programme on GCF procedure and mechanism including project concept note and funding proposal preparation. This will enhance access to GCF for addressing climate change in Bangladesh. Sub-outcome 1.5: Website of PKSF improved for GCF activities Activity 1.5.1: Improve website of PKSF for GCF related activities PKSF has a rich website containing information on its vision, mission, achievements, projects/programmes reports, GRM system and so on. PKSF plans to focus GCF related activities in its website. This activity will

revise the structure of PKSF’s website and incorporate climate change and GCF related activities, achievements, information disclosure, GRM and other relevant information for communicating all levels of communities and stakeholders. Outcome 2: Climate finance strategies and project pipeline strengthened Sub-outcome 2.1: Alignment of Accredited Entity project pipeline development in alignment with Country Programs (CP) Activity 2.1.1 Organize a dialogue for climate finance planning with the NDA/FP and other stakeholders on EWP of PKSF PKSF has developed Entity Work Program for GCF. This work program has been developed in align with the country program. The EWP requires further improvement to make it more realistic and implementable. Hence, PKSF will organize a dialogue with NDA, government ministries and departments, NGOs to improve the EWP.
