Annual Report

The Dutch Fund for Climate and Development (DFCD) enables private sector investment in projects aimed at climate adaptation and mitigation in developing countries.

The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made available €160 million to increase the resilience of communities and ecosystems most vulnerable to climate change.

The DFCD is managed by a pioneering consortium of Climate Fund Managers (CFM), World Wide Fund for Nature Netherlands (WWF-NL) and SNV Netherlands Development Organisation, led by the Dutch Entrepreneurial Development Bank, FMO.

Through the consortium approach, DFCD serves as a leading example for institutional partnerships by connecting long-standing project development expertise of its consortium partners.

The DFCD is managed by a pioneering consortium of Climate Fund Managers (CFM), World Wide Fund for Nature Netherlands (WWF-NL) and SNV Netherlands Development Organisation, led by the Dutch Entrepreneurial Development Bank, FMO.

'If you want to unlock private finance for climate adaptation you cannot do it alone. The work of the Dutch Fund for Climate and Development is a great example of what can be achieved when we join forces.  In this consortium, financial partners FMO and Climate Fund Managers have teamed up with development organisation SNV and the World Wildlife Fund. Together, they’re mobilising private finance for a host of local projects, all over the world.' - Liesje Schreinemacher, Minister of Foreign Trade and Development Co-operation at the COP27, Sharm-el-Sheikh, 12 November 2022
