MANUEL DES RÉSULTATS DU CGIR

The GCF's Integrated Results Management Framework (IRMF) establishes a standardized system for tracking climate mitigation and adaptation results. It requires projects to develop a Theory of Change and a logical framework (logframe) aligned with GCF result areas. Performance is measured through four core mitigation and adaptation indicators, four enabling environment indicators, and a qualitative assessment of paradigm shift across three dimensions: scale, replicability, and sustainability. Monitoring involves annual performance reports (APR) and mandatory mid-term and final evaluations conducted by independent evaluators to ensure accountability and facilitate organizational learning.

• The Integrated Results Management Framework (IRMF) replaces the initial Results Management Framework (RMF) and the Mitigation and Adaptation Performance Measurement Frameworks (MPMF), having been approved in July 2021.
• Paradigm shift is measured qualitatively through three specific dimensions: scale, replicability, and sustainability.
• The GCF defines four core quantitative indicators for mitigation and adaptation: (1) GHG emissions reduced, avoided, or sequestered; (2) direct and indirect beneficiaries reached; (3) value of physical assets made more resilient or lower-emitting; and (4) hectares of natural resource areas under improved management.
• To measure the enabling environment, the IRMF uses four indicators focusing on institutional and regulatory frameworks, technology transfer and innovation, market transformation, and knowledge production/learning.
• Every GCF funding proposal must include a Theory of Change (ToC) and a logical framework (logframe) to define how activities lead to results and impact.
• Accredited Entities (AEs) are required to submit Annual Performance Reports (APR) via the Portfolio Performance Management System (PPMS), typically by March 1st each year.
• Independent evaluations are mandatory at two points: a mid-term evaluation and a final evaluation, both of which must include the paradigm shift and enabling environment scorecards.
• The GCF identifies eight specific result areas: four for mitigation (Energy Production and Access, Low-Emission Transport, Buildings/Cities/Industries/Appliances, and Forestry/Land Use) and four for adaptation (Vulnerable Populations, Health/Well-being/Food and Water Security, Infrastructure/Built Environment, and Ecosystems/Ecosystem Services).
• For mitigation projects, the 'total lifetime' of the project is defined as the maximum number of years the investment's effects are expected to remain effective.
• The IRMF emphasizes 'contribution' rather than 'attribution,' acknowledging that paradigm shifts occur over long periods and depend on multiple actors and externalities.
