The facility will introduce affective and efficient means for Local governments to respond to the challenges and increased expenses of ensuring that the services and infrastructures they provide are resilient to climate change. LoCAL incorporates local initiatives into national strategies and development plans to ensure more complete and sustainable implementation of climate change adaptation measures. The facility will make full use of capacities and systems already established by work through existing local government financial structures.
