The Strategic Framework and Country Program (SFCP) for Kiribati outlines a structured approach to accessing climate finance to enhance national resilience and mitigation. It establishes a project pipeline and a programming cycle managed by the Climate Finance Division (CFD) of the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development (MFED). The framework prioritizes sectors such as coastal protection, water and food security, and energy transition, while emphasizing the need for community-based adaptation and gender-responsive programming. It identifies key international partners, including the Green Climate Fund (GCF), the Adaptation Fund (AF), and the World Bank, to bridge the significant infrastructure and adaptation funding gap, which is estimated by the IMF to require up to 6% of GDP annually.
