GCF/B.32/05: Update of the simplified approval process | Green Climate Fund

The document proposes updates to the Green Climate Fund's Simplified Approval Process (SAP), including increasing the funding ceiling for SAP projects to USD 25 million, establishing baseline performance indicators, and refining the climate rationale for adaptation proposals.

• The Secretariat proposes increasing the maximum GCF funding available for projects or programmes under the Simplified Approval Process (SAP) to USD 25 million, while still maintaining a discussion on other funding level options previously submitted at B.30.
• Proposed updates to the SAP include the creation of a baseline for key performance indicators for specific SAP actions, with a requirement for annual reviews and potential increases in ambition where feasible.
• The document suggests several procedural and structural changes to the SAP, including the establishment of a principle for the presumed existence of climate rationale for adaptation proposals and the possibility of integrating SAP capacity-building into the broader Readiness Programme rather than maintaining a SAP-specific programme.
