GGGI has a diverse portfolio of programs in developing countries around the world. These in-country programs, together with global products and services, focus on delivering results through an integrated approach of evidence-based green growth planning and implementation aligned to countries- development priorities. The organization also focuses on knowledge development and management activities which build a strong theoretical and empirical basis for green growth, while providing concrete options and guidance for policymakers; as well as building the conditions for public and private green infrastructure investments. The organization supports also current and aspiring member countries to mobilize resources through GCF Readiness funding aimed at improving their capacity to access to more green funding that will help them pursuit Green Growth Development Pathway.

To implement its Paris Agreement commitment, the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), Togo will need additional financing over and above the cost of any national decisions and investments. Considering the vulnerability of its economic sectors and of the social and environmental consequences of the effects of climate change, Togo has defined its national priority as the development and implementation of an adaptation strategy and options that would have an impact on the mitigation scenarios, in terms of co-benefits. Togo confirms its commitment to contribute to the global response to the threat of climate change by keeping temperature rise limit to 2°C by 2030. The country has already implemented activities to reduce GHG emissions, especially in the energy, agriculture and land use, land-use change and forestry sectors. Subject to accessing necessary resources, Togo has confirmed that it is aiming for a more ambitious reduction target.

In line with the above challenges and ambitions, the Ministry of Environment and Forest Resources (MERF) of Togo, in its capacity of National Designated Authority (NDA) for Climate Finance has acquired a grant from the Green Climate Fund (GCF) to undertake a twenty-four (24) months Readiness Program in partnership with the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI). This readiness intends to support Togo in addressing its key climate change needs by building the institutional capacity of the country to implement a Low-carbon Emission Transport System.
