What we are doing

Institutional investors, national governments, and local communities are all orienting their policies to promote serious investments in climate action and sustainable development. Despite this favorable environment, there exists a serious gap between how much money could be profitably invested in these projects, and how much money is actually being invested. There is an extreme shortage of projects that are robust enough in terms of bankability to be taken over and funded by financial institutions or the private sector.

What we are achieving

The Transformative Actions Program (TAP) provides a framework for this by connecting transformative sustainable infrastructure projects with project preparation facilities (PPFs) and financiers. Projects in the TAP portfolio are screened based on their transformative impact which ensures their enduring potential. ICLEI develops partnerships that connect the goals of diverse stakeholders into one coherent value chain for developing robust, transformative and investment-ready projects that will accelerate sustainable development.
