Climate Economic Analysis for Development, Investment and Resilience (CEADIR)

The 'Climate Economic Analysis for Development, Investment and Resilience' (CEADIR) activity will assist countries considering policy options for mitigating and adapting to global climate change (GCC). In formulating policy, these countries need better information on the economic costs and benefits; health, safety, and environmental co-benefits for various stakeholder groups; and gender-differentiated impacts regarding GCC. Governments, civil society, and for-profit organizations may also need assistance in accessing financing and/or investment that reduces Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions or increases the resilience to GCC. Activities to be undertaken include: 1) assessments; 2) economic analysis and modeling; 3) analysis of low-emissions investments; 4) mobilizing finance for clean energy(CE) and low-emissions development strategies (LEDS); 5) data collection, and 6) technical assistance and training. Crown Agents is the Prime Partner. (Direct GCC-Sustainable Landscapes: $1,000,000; Direct GCC-Clean Energy: $1,000,000). The Prime Partner for this activity is Crown Agents-this activity is funded with FY 13 carryover ($2.6 million).
