A decade of global climate action: Building resilience, transforming lives

This report marks ten years since the Green Climate Fund approved its first projects in 2015 and tells the story of how GCF has grown into the world’s largest dedicated climate fund for developing countries. Drawing on data from a portfolio of more than 300 projects across regions and sectors, the GCF‑10 Impact Report presents tangible results, evidence of impact on the ground, and lessons from a decade of implementation. Through ten case studies, it illustrates how GCF is helping countries adapt to climate change, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, strengthen institutions, and deliver climate finance at scale.
