Financing country platforms

The document describes country platforms as a mechanism for governments to coordinate national and international finance, moving away from fragmented, project-based approaches toward structured, country-led plans. It highlights the role of Just Energy Transition Partnerships (JETPs) and emphasizes that success depends on institutional capacity, strategic coordination among various actors, and flexible implementation tailored to the specific country context.

• Country platforms serve as a mechanism for governments to coordinate public and private, national and international finance to support country-led policy reforms and plans for development, nature, and climate goals, replacing fragmented and top-down project-based methods.
• The platform concept has expanded since the 2021 launch of Just Energy Transition Partnerships (JETPs) in Indonesia, Senegal, South Africa, and Vietnam to include new types of countries and a focus on adaptation-focused investments.
• Effective implementation of country platforms is complex and requires institutional capacity, strategic coordination between policymakers, private investors, NGOs, and development finance institutions, as well as careful sequencing of funding and policy reform to avoid creating excessive workloads and confusion.
