The Global Environment Facility (GEF) Council is the GEF’s main decision-making body. It meets twice a year to develop, adopt and evaluate the GEF’s operational policies and programmes. The Council approves new projects with global environmental benefits in the GEF’s focal areas (biodiversity, climate change, chemicals and waste, international waters, land degradation and sustainable forest management) and in its integrated approach programmes (IAPs) on sustainable cities, taking deforestation out of global commodity supply chains, and sustainability and resilience for food security in Sub-Saharan Africa. The Council also provides guidance to the GEF Secretariat and Agencies. The 51st meeting of the GEF Council will take place in Washington, DC, US, from 25-27 October 2016. The GEF Council meeting will be preceded, on 24 October 2016, by a consultation with civil society organizations (CSOs). On 27 October 2016, the Council will convene as the 21st meeting of the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF) and Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF). |
