The RRC.AP organized a virtual preliminary training on Developing Concept Notes for the GCF including via the SAP in virtual format over six days from 03 June to 01 July 2021 in collaboration with the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), and the SAP Team of the GCF Secretariat. The workshop gathered 13 participants from project teams in South Asia—namely Bhutan, Maldives, and Nepal— including officers involved in climate change adaptation project formulation. As in previous similar events, the event focused on providing early-stage project formulation know-how and tools to draft high-quality concept notes for the GCF, including for the Simplified Approval Process (SAP).
