**INTRODUCTION TO GGGI**:
The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) is a treaty-based international, inter-governmental organization dedicated to supporting and promoting strong, inclusive and sustainable economic growth in developing countries and emerging economies. To learn more please visit about GGGI web page.

*** CONTEXT**:
Peru’s progress in advancing the implementation of its climate policy has been slow, with the country’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, excluding land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF), increasing by 90% from about 54 MtCO2eq in 1990 to 109 MtCO2eq in 2021. Simultaneously, Peru’s economy and its population are highly vulnerable to climate change, especially water and food insecurity.

Peru faces significant barriers in addressing climate change, including limited institutional capacity to integrate environmental, social, and climate considerations into financial planning and public debt tools; local financial sector unable to effectively screen and mitigate climate risks; a lack of mechanisms to integrate climate change considerations into PPPs; and constrained institutional ability to tap into international climate funds like the GCF. These challenges affect governmental entities such as MEF, MINAM, SBS, and SMV, as well as local financial institutions and infrastructure planning bodies. As a result, the country's climate action, sustainable development, and infrastructure resilience efforts are hindered, making it more vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.

GGGI program aims to support the Government of Peru’s climate finance efforts by delivering a set of complementary workstreams:

- Workstream 1: Building the institutional capacity of Ministry of Economy and Finance, Ministry of Environment, and the Superintendence of Banking, Insurance and Private Pension Funds Administrators (SBS) to integrate environmental, social and climate change considerations into public debt instruments, financial planning and regulation.
- Workstream 2: Greening Peru’s private banking sector.
- Workstream 3: Developing a strategic framework for low-carbon, climate-resilient public-private partnerships (PPPs).
- Workstream 4: Accelerating access to the Green Climate Fund.

**PURPOSE**:

- Accelerate the integration of E&S and climate change standards in Peru’s public finance sector through capacity building and technical assistance to the Ministry of Economy and Finance, Ministry of Environment and national development banks among others identified as relevant;
- Assist the integration of gender and climate change considerations into Peru’s public budget through the development of a Climate and Gender Budget Tagging methodology;
- Promote sustainable banking practices through policy recommendations and capacity building;
- Advise public and private financial sector actors on the design and structuring of innovative sustainable finance instruments, including thematic bonds, green credit programs and debt for nature swaps, among other instruments identified as relevant in the project;
- Deliver on-demand technical assistance to the Ministry of Finance on sustainable finance matters, in coordination with the General Directorate of International Economics, Competition and Productivity Affairs, in which relies also the National Designated Authority.

**ENGAGEMENT**:

- Organize and deliver consultation and validation workshops to validate products and activities;
- Build and maintain strong relationships with public and private sector counterparts, financial institutions, project developers, banking and multilateral partners and government officials;
- Engage with focal points, accredited entities and executing entities of international climate funds, including the Green Climate Fund, Adaptation Fund and Global Environment Facility;
- Support the Project manager with go to market engagement activities, including mapping, engagement and negotiation with investors.

**DELIVERY**:

- Develop and deliver sustainable banking and sustainable finance capacity building material;
- Develop recommendations for MEF and SBS to design sustainable banking regulations to promote mitigation and disclosure of ESG and climate-related financial risks;
- Support local financial institutions in the design and implementation of Environmental and Socia
