This Readiness proposal, initiated by the VBRC of the Vanuatu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, in close cooperation with the Ministry of Climate Change, aims to support the enabling of private sector participation in pursuit of Vanuatu’s long-term CCDRR and climate finance goals. Moreover, the GCF-Vanuatu Country Programme includes private sector as a vital group which will enable a paradigm shift and Vanuatu aims to engage strongly with the private sector on climate change, leverage private sector expertise and resources as well as develop strong public private partnerships. This proposal is an explicit part of the Country Programme that will strengthen these aims going forward.
