Book excerpt: The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is providing approximately $41 million in 2012 funds to finance the Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene Project for the second Cape Verde Compact. Although the principal purpose of the project is to reduce poverty through economic growth, the project also is anticipated to have climate co-benefits. The project will be implemented by the Government of Cape Verde through the Ministry of Environment, Housing, and Territorial Administration and will focus on (1) strengthening national level institutions, (2) reforming utilities, particularly on the Island of Santiago, and (3) improving physical infrastructure. These activities are expected to help strengthen the ability of Cape Verde's government, utilities, and citizens to adapt to climate change impacts by strengthening local water resource planning capacity, adapting building codes, and funding critical infrastructure investments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $5.9 million in the Lowering Emissions in Asia's Forests (LEAF) program, which takes a regional approach to improve REDD+ policy, planning, and institutional frameworks in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Papua New Guinea. The program is demonstrating how to simultaneously lower greenhouse gas emissions, improve land management, and enhance people's livelihoods, while contributing to building REDD+ architecture through linking sub-national actions to national monitoring systems. The U.S. Forest Service is providing targeted technical assistance in forest monitoring systems, carbon-sensitive land use planning, and capacity building. LEAF is also supporting the development and implementation of ASEAN regional guidelines for setting forest emissions baselines, which will provide practical, harmonized, science-based standards for countries in the region. LEAF's regional approach involves replicating and scaling up innovations and successes through regional platforms and partnerships. The program intends to catalyze more rapid change by enabling practitioners to learn from each others' experiences and standardize policies and approaches where they are beneficial.
