Deadline: 8-Jul-24
The African Development Fund has launched the second call for proposals through
its Climate Action Window (CAW) on the sidelines of the 59th Annual Meetings of
the Board of Governors of the African Development Bank Group currently underway
in Nairobi.

Recognizing climate change as a major threat to Africa, the African Development
Fund’s Sixteenth Replenishment (ADF-16) established a Climate Action Window
(CAW) for Africa’s 37 least developed countries. CAW, with an initial commitment
of approximately US$ 429 million, aims to boost adaptation actions and expects
to increase funding through contributions from various actors. The funding is
primarily allocated to adaptation (75%), with the remainder for mitigation (15%)
and technical assistance (10%).

The focus of this Second Call for Proposals under the CAW is the Mitigation
Sub-Window. The CAW will launch a subsequent call focused on Technical
Assistance this year.

PRIORITY SECTORS

 * The CfP on Mitigation Sub-Window is specifically seeking projects from these
   priority sectors:
   * Agriculture, forestry, land use and fisheries
     * Projects eligible for financing under the CAW mitigation sub-window
       include projects that mitigate methane and other greenhouse gas emissions
       from livestock, improve carbon sequestration through rangeland
       management, and promote forestry or agroforestry projects for carbon
       sequestration and sustainable land management. The Mitigation sub-window
       will also support projects that reduce CO2e intensity in fisheries or
       aquaculture through activities such as improved energy efficiency of
       fishing fleets and machinery in the fisheries or aquaculture value chain.
       Additionally, investment outcomes will include support to farmers, food
       producers, and agri-SMEs to access climate-smart agriculture
       technologies. These technologies include efficient irrigation systems and
       renewable energy solutions geared towards enhancing agricultural
       productivity and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, eligible
       projects will support reduction in energy consumption in operations, an
       increase in carbon stock in soil, or the avoidance of soil carbon loss
       through erosion control measures.
   * Water Access and Wastewater management
     * Eligible projects include solid waste treatment, wastewater treatment,
       and water/wastewater reuse. This includes improvements in water supply
       systems through the deployment of low-energy consumption technologies or
       equipment, promotion of better auditing practices, or reduction of water
       losses. Additionally, the Mitigation sub-window will finance wastewater
       projects that reduce emissions through energy efficiency improvements or
       improved treatment targets. Projects promoting improved operation and
       maintenance to reduce water losses, promote energy savings, or meet or
       exceed wastewater treatment targets will also be funded.
   * Energy access and renewable energy:
     * The mitigation sub-window will finance projects enabling ADF countries to
       accelerate a just energy transition through sovereign and public-private
       partnerships, aiming to green the energy mix and increase access to
       clean, sustainable electricity. This includes grid expansion and
       decentralizes renewable energy access programs. Additionally, the CAW
       will support projects greening power infrastructure, delivering
       additional renewable energy generation capacity, and enhancing resilience
       and energy supply reliability. Projects involving green hydrogen and
       other new renewable energy technologies, as well as the production,
       transport, or storage of low-carbon hydrogen or low-carbon products, will
       be eligible. Adoption of energy-efficient appliances, such as clean
       cooking technologies, will also be funded, bringing substantial
       mitigation benefits and adaptation co-benefits. Other eligible mitigation
       projects involve utilizing waste gas as a feedstock or fuel to provide
       electricity, heat, mechanical energy, or cooling energy. This includes
       waste gas from sources such as landfill methane, abandoned mine methane,
       associated gas currently being flared or vented, and biogas from
       municipal sewage, wastewater, or agricultural activities.
   * Transport and infrastructure
     * Eligible projects will contribute to the development of climate resilient
       transport and urban infrastructure that is integrated and inclusive, is
       carbon neutral and supports better air-quality, while also enhancing
       regional trade, in line with the Integrate Africa High 5s. Investment
       outcomes will include urban mobility projects to be implemented and urban
       streets with Intelligent Traffic Management Systems (ITMS) and
       Non-Motorized Transport (NMT) facilities. Resilient transport
       infrastructure projects will leverage green climate funds in concessional
       and commercial co-financing, resulting in greening seaports, shipping,
       railways, intermodal logistics and urban public transport systems.
       Emphasis will also be placed on regional road networks including one stop
       border posts and auxiliary facilities. Other eligible projects include
       use of waste gas as transport fuel and construction of urban and rural
       public transport infrastructure.
   * Green and sustainable finance
     * Investment outcomes will include the development of country-led green
       bonds, climate funds, or sustainable investment funds to attract private
       sector climate co-finance for mitigation projects in ADF countries.
       Additionally, to catalyze support for integrated natural resource
       investment, the CAW will support governance and green financing
       interventions through rent repurposing, blue/green bonds, bio-credits,
       debt-for-nature swap, and resource-backed loan transactions in RMCs on a
       case-by-case basis. The Mitigation sub-window will also support
       interventions that use Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, which includes
       market and non-market mechanisms, to scale up access to climate finance
       for mitigation projects.

CROSS-CUTTING PRIORITY AREAS 

 * Paris alignment: Project investments must be both carbon neutral and climate
   resilient, and investments either invested via Paris aligned projects or into
   pipelines that are themselves carbon neutral and climate resilient.
   Investments here will include well-developed national LTS, NDCs, NAPs and/or
   Adaptations Communications that are also aligned with National Biodiversity
   Strategies and Action Plans, and these will be supported through the
   Technical Assistance sub-window.
 * Gender, youth, and social inclusion: The gender gap in access to productive
   resources shapes climate change impacts on men and women and how they can
   respond. Contributing to closing the gender gap will be a key criterion in
   assessing the eligibility of projects to access CAW funding. Projects will
   align with the Bank’s Gender Strategy and Action Plan (2020 – 2025) and the
   Bank’s Jobs for Youth in Africa Strategy (2016-2025). Through the concept
   notes, project teams should address how the project will provide women and
   youth with enhanced and equal access to, inter alia: finance for
   climate-smart agricultural, digital, business and SME innovations; services
   to improve production and increase access to markets; climate and disaster
   risk finance and insurance; land rights; clean cooking and renewable energy
   technologies; water and sanitation systems; safe and inclusive transport
   systems; participation in the development of climate adaptation and
   mitigation strategies; and climate and weather forecasts and other forms of
   risk mitigation information. Gender-focused and youth-focused projects
   addressing climate change issues will also be considered.
 * Biodiversity and nature-based solutions: The CAW will support projects that
   address nature-based solutions and aim to restore mangroves and wetlands,
   allow water to be stored and purified in a natural way (green
   infrastructures), aquaculture, forestry, and biodiversity conservation. The
   CAW will help to identify and deliver solutions to assist ADF countries to
   develop plans and projects for investments in nature-based solutions in key
   areas such as food and water security, restoration of degraded lands,
   sustainable forest management, flood and erosion control, blue economy, and
   coastal protection. This will be reflected in the ADF country and regional
   strategies and will be strengthened through the design of robust investments
   in Nature-based Solutions (NBS) in future ADF project pipelines.
 * Enhancing climate governance and green public finance: CAW will finance
   projects that support activities aimed at strengthening governance systems
   for climate change. This includes: creating public policies and making
   decisions that directly relate to the international climate governance
   processes of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
   (UNFCCC); ensuring participation and engagement with Civil society around the
   Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs); Ensuring appropriate framework
   laws, regulations or public policies on climate change are developed in line
   with the NDCs; Greening public financial management1- promoting climate
   sensitive budgeting; monitoring and management of climate fiscal risks;
   promoting climate related revenue reforms i.e. carbon taxes- fuel taxes and
   green bonds; integrating climate into public investment management systems;
   strengthening accountability and transparency of climate spending.
 * Skills and Capacity Building: CAW projects will support capacity building
   activities in the context of evolving climate challenges. Recognizing the
   imperative of transitioning to climate-smart technologies and practices
   across key sectors like energy, agriculture, and transport, the CAW is
   committed to supporting initiatives that bridge the current skills gap. By
   facilitating upskilling of the workforce, promoting innovation, and endorsing
   the adaptation of new technologies, the CAW seeks to elevate national
   systems, with a particular focus on higher education and research
   capabilities. This ensures not only a proactive response to climate
   disruptions but also a robust foundation for RMCs to integrate and capitalize
   on climate-resilient strategies. This could also include capacity
   strengthening on establishing Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV)
   systems for mitigation, greenhouse gas accounting among others.

FUNDING INFORMATION

 * For this mitigation call, the Climate Action Window will allocate
   approximately US$ 64 million. The funding is in the form of grants. Funding
   requested for a single project or programme may range between US$ 3 million
   to 5 million. In exceptional cases and on recommendation by the Independent
   Evaluation Panel, funding may be granted above or below these limits.
