The approach to transformational change in multilateral climate funds: AF, CIF, GEF and GCF

This report synthesizes insights from an exploratory study on how transformational change (TC) is
conceptualized, operationalized, and evaluated in the four largest multilateral climate funds: the Adaptation Fund (AF), Climate Investment Funds (CIF), Global Environmental Facility (GEF), and Green Climate Fund (GCF). The study aims to provide key considerations to amplify TC work across these funds.
The study was produced collaboratively by the four funds. Designed as a light internal analysis to provide
timely insights, it relied primarily on a desktop review of secondary data provided by fund focal points
including strategic documents, policies, frameworks, guidelines, evaluations, and other relevant reports and supplemented by interviews with these fund representatives. A review process incorporated input
from all four funds.
This report begins with Meeting This Moment: Why This Study Matters (section 2), which outlines the
urgency of collective transformational climate action. It then presents individual profiles of the four funds,
organized first by those for which TC is a strategic priority CIF, GEF, and GCF, listed alphabetically.
The analysis for these funds includes how each conceptualizes, institutionalizes, and evaluates TC,
along with an assessment of their TC frameworks.
The AF profile follows, analyzing the same aspects of the other funds; however, because TC is not a formal
strategic priority for the AF, the analysis shifts from a TC framework to an exploration of key elements that
contribute to the AF’s TC potential.
