Grant Management Support to the Readiness and Preparatory Support Programme and the Project Preparation Facility of the Green Climate Fund (GCF) The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is a global fund created to support the efforts of developing countries to respond to the challenge of climate change. GCF helps developing countries limit or reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. It seeks to promote a paradigm shift to low-emission and climate-resilient development, taking into account the needs of nations that are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts.\n\nThe GCF Readiness programme is a funding programme to enhance country ownership and access to the Fund. It provides resources for strengthening the institutional capacities of National Designated Authorities or focal points and Direct Access Entities to efficiently engage with the Fund. It also assists countries in undertaking adaptation planning and developing strategic frameworks to build their programming with the GCF.\n\nUNOPS assists the work of the GCF through grant support management services.\n

Support to Ethnic Tibetan (SET) activity The activity will crowd-source cultural preservation of Tibetan texts and find, vet and scan millions of previously undocumented and unaccounted for texts from the Tibetan areas of China. The goal is to preserve 2.5 million pages of Tibetan texts. Subsequently, the activity will repatriate the literary heritage of Tibet back to the plateau by distributing 150 digital library hard drives per year. It is anticipated that a minimum of seven copies of each of these drives will be made once they are in the Tibetan areas of China, resulting in 6,000 digital library drives available to Tibetans over the period of project implementation. It is expected that the activity will increase digital preservation capacity across the plateau, including the skills, mindset, network, and funding to innovate and discover new ways to capture, preserve, and strengthen Tibet's cultural heritage.
