The primary objective of the Readiness Support to Strengthen the Philippines’ Capacity and Knowledge on Accessing the Green Climate Fund or Readiness and Preparatory Support Program (RPSP) is to support the CCC in fully implementing its roles and responsibilities as the designated NDA of the Philippines to the GCF. The proposal also seeks additional institutional support for national capacities of government agencies, civil society organizations (CSOs), and the academe to develop a monitoring and verification system for climate finance flows in the country, as well as to pursue the ratification of a bilateral agreement between the Philippines and Brief summary of GCF on privileges and immunities. the request

The primary beneficiary of this request is the CCC being the NDA to the GCF. Included in this proposal are activities intended for building the capacity and empowering the NDA, its Secretariat, and the GCF-TWG towards the institutionalization of effective and efficient implementation mechanisms to carry out the work expected from them (i.e. screening and evaluation of proposals, operationalization of the no-objection procedures (Activity 1.1.1) and a country portfolio analysis to ensure consistency of GCF projects with that of the country’s Nationally Determined Contribution and the Country Programme (Activity 1.1.2)).

Since June 2016, the Philippine Green Climate Fund Readiness Program (GCFRP), funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB), has been implemented through the following development partners with corresponding status of their outputs:

1. World Resources Institute (WRI) – Selection of Landbank of the Philippines (LBP) as the first Philippine Direct Access Entity (DAE) to the GCF for accreditation (completed); Has the country received or is expecting to receive other Readiness and Preparatory 2. United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) – Support funding allocations (including Development of the Country Programme for the GCF including a adaptation planning) from GCF or other pipeline of prioritized climate change programs and projects donors? (ongoing); Development of one (1) Funding Proposal for submission to the GCF (ongoing); and accreditation support for the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) and the Foundation for the Philippine Environment (FPE) as DAEs to the GCF for accreditation (ongoing); and

3. United Nations Environment (UNEP) – Support to the preparation of a public-private partnership (PPP) modality to implement climate adaptation and mitigation programs and projects (completed); and Provision of technical assistance to local financial institutions to develop new financial products and services for prioritized climate sectors (completed).

The GCFRP prepares developing countries to effectively and efficiently plan for access, management, deployment and monitoring of climate financing, particularly the GCF.

In December 2018, the Readiness Support to Enhance Pathways to Green Finance was approved under the Readiness and Preparatory Support Program. To be implemented by the NDA in partnership with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Program aims to adopt a broad framework for the Philippine government in supporting commercial and government financial institutions and private stakeholders to access the GCF as well as pioneer and handle green finance initiatives.

2. BACKGROUND

The Philippines is one of the few mega-biodiverse countries in the world, home to a variety of ecosystems, species, habitats, and natural resources. As an archipelagic country composed of 7,641 islands and situated along the typhoon belt in the Pacific, it is visited by an average of 20 typhoons a year, which, alongside other rapid and slow onset climate events, put at risk more than 100 million Filipinos, especially those living in coastal communities.

The 2019 Global Index by the Germanwatch ranked the Philippines fifth among countries most affected by climate change from 1998 to 2017, a two-decade period analysis that further indicated that the country lost an annual average of 0.5% of its GDP due to climate change impacts. Projections are grim as the study by the Asian Development Bank on the economics of climate change warns that the Philippines stands to lose 6% of its GDP annually by 2100 if it disregards climate change risks. But if the country invests 0.5% of its GDP by 2020 in climate change adaptation, it can avert losses of up to 4% of its GDP by 2100–a short-term investment with a long-term, eightfold gain.

While the Philippines already supports its own local climate finance mechanism called the People’s Survival Fund (PSF), it is targeted at individual subnational units and funding levels are insufficient to support transformational programs and projects at scale. Thus, access to international climate finance sources remains crucial to bolster investments towards climate resilience and low carbon development.

The country has secured readiness support from the German government in 2016 (and in 2018, another underway from GCF for green finance pathways), but to a significant extent, capacity building was conducted with the former NDA—the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). An approved readiness proposal from the GCF in 2016 did not also push through for the CCC due to the transfer of the NDA role to DENR.

The official nomination by the President of the Philippines of the CCC as the NDA to the GCF in July 2018 signalled a renewed commitment from the government to embed and institutionalize the GCF and NDA operations in the national processes. The designation aligns the CCC’s mandate as the lead coordinating agency in the finalization of the country’s updated Philippine National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP) and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC).

With the urgency to increase the scope and impact of climate action, a more effective strategy for climate finance must be in place. The CCC will further build on the gains of the readiness programme begun by DENR and continue its implementation, particularly the development of the Country Programme and No-Objection Procedure (NOP), as well as the accreditation of DBP as a second national direct access entity.

The draft Philippine GCF Country Programme contains the different programs and projects identified and developed based on the inputs from the government, civil society, development partners, and the business sectors through a series of multi-stakeholder consultation meetings and interviews and literature review of relevant laws, the National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP), Philippine Development Plan (PDP) and Public Investment Program (PIP), Roadmap of the Cabinet Cluster on Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation – Disaster Risk Reduction and the draft Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC), among others.

With this RPSP proposal, the CCC intends to build on the accomplishments under the readiness programs delivered through UNDP and UNEP, and to now operationalize the institutional arrangements for GCF/NDA operations, with the concerned government agencies, entities, and stakeholders made fully aware of their roles and responsibilities through workshops and IEC materials. It also aims to pursue the development of a system that will monitor climate finance flows in the country, to aid in the strategic programming for climate investments, as well as the ratification of a bilateral agreement between the Philippines and GCF on privileges and immunities.

This intends to address major gaps in our access to climate finance. First, the varying proficiency of the members of the NDA Secretariat and GCF-TWG on the GCF processes and review tools, such as the SET, when assessing concept notes and funding proposals. Second, the lack of support to train agencies, entities, local government units, and stakeholders in producing concept notes and funding proposals, or the lack of mechanism for collaboration therefor. Third, the absence of a unifying process to consolidate the flow, currently sporadic, of climate finance into the country. And fourth, the limited capacity of the NDA to raise awareness, produce knowledge products, and engage stakeholders, especially those in the communities.

Overall, the RPSP will further enable the CCC to be a functioning and supportive NDA determined to access the climate finance its country and its people urgently need.

6. IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION

6.1 Implementation map Please describe how funds will be managed by the NDA and/or the Readiness Delivery Partner.

The NDA, through a letter dated 23 November 2018, has nominated GGGI to be its Delivery Partner (DP) of the GCF Readiness activity on NDA Strengthening. The GGGI has been a partner of the CCC, the designated NDA, since October 2011. This partnership, contained in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between CCC and GGGI, served as platform for initiatives to strengthen capacities of Local Government Units (LGUs) and develop a robust network of stakeholders, such as the private sector, academic institutions, civil society and the marginalized sectors at the community level, to promote climate resilience and green growth.

With reference to the GGGI-GCF Framework Readiness and Preparatory Support Grant Agreement, GGGI will undertake project implementation including financial management of the readiness funds as stated below:

1. In close collaboration with the NDA, GGGI will guide, monitor, and supervise the effective and timely implementation of activities by consultants/vendors, based on agreed Terms of Reference (TORs) and the GGGI Standard of Implementation and Monitoring Procedures. The GGGI will regularly provide a status report of activity implementation to the NDA.

2. The GGGI will procure goods and services, both non-consulting and consulting, in accordance with the identified activities and procurement plan detailed under section 3 of this proposal; and in compliance with GGGI procurement policies and procedures. The NDA will approve the TORs for all goods and services that will be procured. The GGGI will regularly update the NDA of the procurement status, from posting, shortlisting, selection, and evaluation. The NDA will be closely engaged in the recruitment process of consulting services, including pre-assessment, interviews, and post evaluation of performance.

3. The GGGI will monitor prudent disbursements of funds and will ensure that all funds are provided on a timely basis to ensure expedition and acquittal of funds is not delayed and all funds are accounted for and transparent. The GGGI will also prepare periodic revisions to reflect changes in six monthly and annual expense category budgets and monitor and review project expenditure reports. The GGGI will submit these reports to the NDA and if required, to the GCF Secretariat.

4. The GGGI, in close collaboration with the NDA, will prepare the project completion report, and submit the report to GCF Secretariat. The GGGI will prepare project closing documents including annual audited financial statements and submit to the GCF.

The NDA and the GGGI will sign a Memorandum of Agreement on project implementation arrangements to clarify each party’s roles and responsibilities, based on the approved GCF RPSP Proposal.

NDA engagement with GCF-TWG, CCCAB, and other stakeholders

The CCC, as the NDA, seeks technical advice and recommendations from the GCF-Technical Working Group on whether to issue a no-objection letter to funding proposals. The GCF-TWG was created through CCC Administrative Order No. 1 establishing the Procedure on the Issuance of No-Objection Letter to Funding Proposals for the Green Climate Fund.

Readiness and Preparatory Support Page 14 of 19

The composition of the GCF-TWG is based on the membership of the Climate Change Advisory Board (CCAB), which is created under provisions of the law creating the Climate Change Commission (Republic Act No. 9729, as amended by R.A. 10174). Not all agencies comprising the CCAB are part of the GCF-TWG. Further to AO No. 1, only a few agencies are part of the core membership of the GCF-TWG, but other agencies and representatives from CSOs, academe, and other stakeholders may also be invited to form part of the GCF- TWG, depending on the subject matter of the funding proposals being reviewed.

For example, the Philippine Commission on Women (PCW) is part of the core membership of the GCF-TWG to ensure consideration of gender-responsive perspectives when reviewing all funding proposals. On the other hand, for obvious reasons the Department of Energy (DOE) is invited to the GCF-TWG only for reviewing a project relating to the energy sector. The NDA also ensures that representatives from civil society, particularly from organizations registered as GCF active observers, and a member of the CCC’s National Panel of Technical Experts (as created under RA9729) with expertise related to the subject, participate in GCF-TWG deliberations.

This proposal intends to address major gaps in our access to climate finance. First, the varying proficiency of the members of the NDA Secretariat and GCF-TWG on GCF processes and review tools, such as the SET, when assessing concept notes and funding proposals. Second, the lack of support to train agencies, entities, local government units, and stakeholders in producing concept notes and funding proposals, and the lack of mechanism for collaboration thereof. Third, the absence of a unifying process to consolidate climate finance flows in the country, which currently remains sporadic. And fourth, the limited capacity of the NDA to raise awareness, produce knowledge products, and engage stakeholders, especially those in the communities.

Through a whole-of-nation approach, the NDA ensures that the process of accessing GCF and other climate finance facilities is not conducted solely within the confines of government, but also engaging the private sector, civil society, academe, and other stakeholders. The NDA intends to broaden and sustain more partnerships with stakeholders through this proposal. The more that stakeholders are engaged and empowered, the more institutionalized the process becomes so as to withstand changes in the political landscape (or at the very least, provide impetus for the process to continue without delays). This becomes a shared responsibility and goal among the government, CSOs, academe, private sector, and other stakeholders.

Entering into sub/other agreements

GGGI will manage the execution of the project and day-to-day activities will be closely coordinated with the NFP Support Team and NDA Secretariat. GGGI will use its procurement rules to recruitment consultants where needed.

6.2 Risks, monitoring and evaluation (M&E), and other relevant information

Impact Risks Mitigation Measures Low/Medium/ High Political Risk High Through a whole-of-nation approach, the NDA ensures that the process of accessing Changes in political appointments in GCF and other climate finance facilities is relevant government agencies not conducted solely within the confines of concerned in climate finance have government, but also engaging the private significantly delayed project activities sector, civil society, academe, and other or have put some other activities in stakeholders. The NDA intends to broaden indefinite hold. and sustain more partnerships with stakeholders through this proposal. The more that stakeholders are engaged and empowered, the more institutionalized the process becomes so as to withstand changes in the political landscape (or at the very least, provide impetus for the process to continue without delays). This becomes a shared responsibility and goal among the government, CSOs, academe, private sector, and other stakeholders.

Financial Risk Low Monitoring will be continuous, involving data collection and assessment of the project’s Underestimation or overestimation of implementation, whether actual expenses budget for the proposed activities may incurred require adjustments in the project’s cause overspending and implementation. underspending, respectively.

Technical Risks Medium Constant coordination among the NDA, GGGI, and consultants/ vendors will be Consultants/ vendors did not perform maintained. Regular progress reporting will based on the agreed TOR, or false also be implemented. short of the performance expected by the NDA.

Monitoring and Evaluation

The GGGI in close coordination with the CCC National Focal Point (NFP) Support Team will draft an M&E plan to regularly monitors projects and prepares monthly and annual reports based on the progress, observation, and recommendations for improvement. Project progress will be monitored on a regular basis against the set of implementation milestones. Monitoring will be continuous, involving data collection and assessment of the project’s implementation and will involve periodic project meeting to review operations and implementation as well as to assess whether new development or issues require adjustments in the project’s implementation.

Progress reports, including audited financial statements, are submitted to the GCF Secretariat for disbursement requests and project closing. The actual project progress is also presented vis-a-vis the pre-identified logframe and budget. The GGGI together with the NFP Support Team will prepare periodic revisions to reflect changes in six monthly and annual expense category budgets and monitor and review project expenditure reports. Audited statement of expenditure incurred (broken down by cost category and performance area), will include an analysis of any variance between budgeted and actual expenditure. The GGGI will submit these reports to the NDA and if required, to the GCF Secretariat. The GGGI engages independent auditors to ensure that the project evaluation is unbiased and credible.

At project completion, the Final Report will summarize the level of the project’s accomplishments in meeting its objectives, outcomes and outputs. It will also highlight the breakthroughs and innovative contributions of the project which are worth replicating in similar projects to be undertaken in other countries. It shall also include documentation of all project outputs/deliverables.

Start Date

After the approval of the Grant, a notification letter will be sent by the GCF to NDA with copy to the Delivery Partner. The date of such notification by the GCF will be treated as the start date for project implementation. From that date, the end date of implementation will be calculated considering the total duration of the project as presented in the approved proposal.

Project Assets and Knowledge Generated

All reports, products, processes, documents and other materials (including IT equipment, web-based data platform), generated during the implementation of this project using GCF resources shall be vested with CCC to be freely shared for all stakeholders (including the public, private sector and CSOs), as well the means to update and manage these intellectual assets beyond the project life.

Anti-Money Laundering/Counter-Terrorist Financing

GGGI has established Rules on Integrity Due Diligence that will require due diligence review of third parties prior to their engagement with GGGI (http://gggi.org/site/assets/uploads/2019/06/Rules-on-Integrity-Due- Diligence_16-June-2019.pdf). A basic due diligence will review issues related to money laundering, terrorism, organized crime, sanctions imposed by international and national bodies, human rights violations, modern slavery, or any other serious wrongdoing. A high-risk indicator would result in non-engagement with the third party while a medium risk indicator will result in any further enhanced due diligence. GGGI will engage with a third party with a low risk indicator.

Readiness Grant Budget Preparation Guidelines

The following considerations are important when completing the budget: 1. Before preparing the Readiness and PPF budget, please read the full guidance on our website (https://www.greenclimate.fund/how-we-work/empowering-countries). 2. You can select the appropriate budget categories from the dropdown list in the budget plan: 3. To insert additional rows, right click on the row number below where you wish to insert the new row and choose INSERT. 4. Additional budget categories may be added by manually typing them on the Budget Category sheet. :

Project Management Cost: Project management costs (PMC) are the direct administrative costs incurred to execute a project. They should cover only incremental costs incurred due to the GCF contribution. In most cases, these costs are directly related to the support of a dedicated project management unit (PMU) which manages the day to day execution related activities of the project.

General Principles for PMC costs: 1. The percentage of PMC financed by GCF should not be more than the percentage share of the overall budget financed by GCF 2. PMC budget thresholds: Up to 7.5 per cent of total activity budget. > PMC exceeding 7.5 per cent for the readiness (including NAPs) proposals, and PPF proposals, up to $ 3 million will require detailed documentation and justification supporting the entire PMC budget. > The PMC should be shown as a separate component in the project budget. A detailed breakdown of PMC should be provided by budget category. > Indicative list of eligible project management costs: > Project staffing and consultants: Project manager, Project Assistant, Procurement personnel, Finance personnel & Support/admin. Personnel > Other direct costs: Office equipment, Mission related travel cost of the PMU, Project management systems and information technology, Office supplies, Audit cost

Contingency : 1. Select the appropriate % of Contingency Budget from the dropdown list :

2. Contingency budget for unforeseen costs arising during the project implementation should not be included in the outcome budget separately. 3. Contingency budget must be used for any unforeseen programme (output level) cost that is unrelated to implementation/service fee. 4. Any use of contingency must be reported to and agreed by the GCF Secretariat in writing in advance provided with justifications that are acceptable to the GCF 5. If you get to the end of the project and you haven’t spent Contingency, you can’t increase the scope of the project or buy some more equipment to use it up.

6. The Budget Notes sheet should be used to record explanations, further details or cost breakdowns for individual lines
