DBSB Reduction of Enterprise Nutrient Discharges Project - RENDR - under WB-GEF Strategic Partnership for Nutrient Reduction in the Danube River and Black Sea
The project would reduce nutrient pollution from hotspot enterprises on the Danube River and its tributaries through investment in cleaner production and better waste management technologies as well as institutional and monitoring& enforcement development. As such, it would address some of the main root causes of serious pollution of a threatened transboundary waterbody, the Black Sea by way of the Danube River. Being proposed for implementation under the Strategic Partnership on the Danube and Black Sea Basin, the project would be in conformity with GEF OP No.
Third Environment Programme
The development objective is the setting natural resources management and biodiversity protection in critical ecological regions on an effective and sustainable footing with active participation from local populations and other relevant stakeholders, while at the same time incorporating environmental dimensions in public policy making and investment decisions. The proposed UNDP/GEF and IDA/GEF funding supports the third five-year phase of the Environmental Action Plan (PAE).
SP-SFIF: Strategic Partnership for a Sustainable Fisheries Investment Fund in the Large Marine Ecosystems of Sub-Saharan Africa (Tranche 1, Installment 1)
The 5 Large Marine Ecosystems(LMEs) of Sub-Saharan Africa are beginning to feel the cumulative effects of growing populations and overfishing. As such, these LMEs, and the living resources they support, are being threatened on two fronts: from the destruction of critical habitat that provides spawning and nursery grounds for many species of fish in the early stages of their life cycle, to over-harvesting of target fish stocks based on inadequate management of fishing effort (both local and distant fleets).
Guangdong - Pearl River Delta Urban Environment
The project would support a large volume of collaborative, least-cost environmental investments and their financial sustainability. This would be achieved through a combination of physical investments, policy and institutional reforms, and financial management improvements. Its over-arching goal would be to achieve the maximum sustainable environment benefits for the Pearl River Delta area and the seas of East Asia by identifying and funding the best least-cost environmental investment program, that can be sustained with sound financial management.
Energy Efficiency Project
The objective of the proposed project is to support a large increase in EE investment in Bulgaria through development of a self-sustaining, market-based financing mechanism. The project’s goal is focused on the development and implementation of financially profitable EE investment. GEF financing of some US$10 million will be sought to provide the seed capital for BEEF (US$8.8 million) and to fund the TA component (US$1.2 million). As BEEF seeks to make profit, investment financing and partial credit guarantees would be provided on commercial terms.
Second Rural Poverty, Natural Resources Management and Consolidation of the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor Project
The global objective of the proposed project supports the efforts of the Government of Panama to integrate environmental and social sustainability into development and poverty reduction strategies in the Pacific and Atlantic municipalities. It will do so through the following objectives: (a) enable decentralization of environmental management by strengthening local governments; (b) strengthen and train local government authorities in environmental management; and (c) support poor communities to adopt biodiversity friendly income generating activities.
Enabling Activity for the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): National Implementation Plan for St. Lucia
Within the overall objective of the Stockholm Convention, which is to protect human health and the environment from POPs and chemicals, the project will: i. Prepare the ground for implementation of the Convention in Saint Lucia; ii. Assist Saint Lucia in meeting its reporting and other obligations under the Convention; and iii. Strengthen Saint Lucia’s national capacity to manage POPs, and chemicals generally.
Expanding Partnerships for the National Parks System (resubmission)
The key objective of the project is to develop and implement a participatory, inter-institutional management model for Canaima National Park that will promote biodiversity conservation, provide both global and local environmental services, and ensure the full involvement of indigenous people and local communities. The model would also be replicated in the other protected areas in Venezuela.
