Pilot Program for Climate Resilience
Leading Organization:
Implementing Agency and Partnering Organizations:
Summary:
The Pilot Program for Climate Resilience (PPCR) is the first program under the Strategic Climate Fund. It aims to provide incentives for scaled up action and transformational change in integrating consideration of climate resilience in national development planning consistent with poverty reduction and sustainable development goals.
It will provide additional financial resources to help fund public and private sector investments identified in climate resilient development plans.
Pilot Country presentations from the October 26 and 27 PPCR Pilot Country Meetings are now available online. For more information: [World Bank - Pilot Program for Climate Resilience](http://go.worldbank.org/2N8K0LZ7C0)

Project Components:
The Pilot Program for Climate Resilience (PPCR) is designed to provide programmatic finance for national climate resilient national development plans. The PPCR aims to provide transformational and scaled-up support for both the development and implementation of such plans.
Furthermore, its purpose is to provide lessons over the next few years that might be taken up by countries, the development community, and the future climate change regime, including the Adaptation Fund.
This experience will be gained through scaled-up interventions covering the full range of sectors and sources of financing, and with sufficient resources to move quickly from planning to action.
The PPCR will build upon National Adaptation Programs of Action (NAPAs), will be implemented in a manner consistent with the Paris Declaration of Aid Effectiveness, and will complement existing adaptation funds which continue to serve essential roles in tackling climate change.
Expected Outputs:
Objectives:
(a) Pilot and demonstrate approaches for integration of climate risk and resilience into development policies and planning;
(b) Strengthen capacities at the national levels to integrate climate resilience into development planning;
(c) Scale-up and leverage climate resilient investment, building on other ongoing initiatives;
(d) Enable learning-by-doing and sharing of lessons at country, regional and global levels.
