How does the Adaptation Fund receive its funding?
The Fund is financed with 2% of the shares of proceeds on the Certified Emission Reduction Units (CERs) issued for projects of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and other sources of funding. Additionally, at the eighth meeting of the Adaptation Fund Board, the Board decided to approve Guidelines for Accepting Unsolicited Donations to the Adaptation Fund Trust Fund. Eligible Donors to the Adaptation Fund include sovereign governments and non-sovereign governments (e.g., foundations, non-governmental organizations, private corporations and individuals).
