GCF_FP016_CLIM_001GCF_FP016falsetruefalsetruetrue--FP016 is a pure adaptation project (GCF Theme: Adaptation) focused on strengthening the resilience of smallholder farmers in Sri Lanka's Dry Zone to climate variability and extreme events through integrated water management. Result areas are 100% adaptation: Health, food, and water security (77%) and Livelihoods of people and communities (23%). Lifetime CO2 is zero; no mitigation outcomes. The primary activities are grey/green infrastructure: community irrigation water infrastructure, decentralized drinking water systems, and early weather warning/flood-response systems; not explicitly nature-based or ecosystem-based solutions. The project aligns with Sri Lanka's National Adaptation Plan (NAP) and Climate Change Policy, and the funding proposal references NDC alignment. A dedicated Gender Assessment and Gender Action Plan exist alongside 51% female beneficiaries. GCF and co-financing are both classified as 'climate' finance type. Exact climate co-benefits percentage and formal climate finance methodology taxonomy were not recoverable from available local sources.
