Case Study from Tajikistan
Financial Instruments to Accelerate Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation
Microfinance instruments can provide significant opportunities, specifically for the rural communities, to invest in adaptation and mitigation measures to circumvent further economic losses due to climate change impacts or even increase their income through diversification. The following case study from Tajikistan presents two microfinance options with high potential for scaling. These are microcredits for selected adaptation measures and grant schemes for the afforestation of degraded forest lands.
