Background and context

The Government of Rwanda (GoR) has prioritized green economy to guide national development through the economic transformation that is environmentally sustainable and climate-resilient. This is reflected in the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) which considers the green economy among priority areas and identifies environment and climate change as a cross-cutting issue to be mainstreamed across socio-economic sectors. At the highest policy level, the Cabinet approved the Green Growth and Climate Resilience Strategy (GGCRS) in 2011 to guide and drive the performance of all sectors of the Rwandan economy towards climate-resilient and low carbon development pathway. The National Fund for the environment (FONERWA) was identified as the sustainable financing facility to ensure the successful implementation of the GGCRS. As a result, the GoR has established and is committed to operationalizing FONERWA. The Fund is supervised by the Ministry of Environment (MoE)

• To mobilize and manage resources for achieving environmental sustainability, climate resilience, and green growth in order to promote Rwanda’s short, medium, and long term sustainable development goals.
