Climate change is a threat to global
development and to the core Mission of the World Bank Group.
With the recognition that human activity drives global
warming, the World Bank Group has pursued a long-term
commitment to curb global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for
more than 20 years. The purposes of this evaluation are to
assess the role and contributions of the Bank Group in CF in
relation to the needs and priorities of its client
countries and its potential comparative advantages, and to
draw lessons to inform the World Bank Group’s future
strategic direction in CF. The evaluation aims to answer
thefollowing overarching question: What has been the
strategic objective, nature of engagement, and contribution
of the Bank Group in supporting CF? What lessons can be
drawn from this to inform the Bank Group’s strategic
direction in supporting the next generation of marketbased
carbon mitigation activities, given its potential
comparative advantages? |
