Global Environment Facility

The Global Environment Facility (GEF) is a partnership among 184 countries, international institutions, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the private sector to address global environmental issues while supporting national sustainable development initiatives. 

The GEF is a designated financial mechanism for a number of multilateral environmental agreements or conventions; as such the GEF assists countries in meeting their obligations under the conventions that they have signed and ratified. Today the GEF is the largest funder of projects to improve the global environment. To learn more about the GEF visit our website.
