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.

PROJECT BACKGROUND:

GGGI has a diverse portfolio of programs in developing countries around the world.

These in-country programs, together with global products and services, focus on delivering results through an integrated approach of evidence-based green growth planning and implementation aligned to countries' development priorities.

The organization also focuses on knowledge development and management activities which build a strong theoretical and empirical basis for green growth, while providing concrete options and guidance for policymakers; as well as building the conditions for public and private green infrastructure investments.

Mexico's development priorities have evolved in the context of global and domestic changes, resulting in a significant push to transform the public life to achieve a greater benefit for all.

This intent is ingrained in the National Development Plan , which serves as an umbrella for sectoral and institutional plans and a key tool for cooperation fostering inclusive development.

The goal of its political, social, and economic pillars is to bring the nation toward prosperity, security, sustainability; thus, green growth and a low-carbon society are key development objectives for the country.

GGGI has a diverse portfolio of programs in developing countries around the world.

Over the last decade, the Global Green Growth Institute has consolidated its role as a trusted advisor to Mexico's federal and subnational governments, actively working shoulder-to-shoulder with key counterparts to establish a strong green growth foundation in the country.

In 2014, the Mexican Senate ratified the Agreement for the Establishment of GGGI, which signals Mexico's commitment to green growth and its recognition of the shared value of this development paradigm in cooperation with GGGI.

In 2021, the Country Agreement between GGGI and Mexico was signed between the Mexican Foreign Affairs Secretariat and GGGI; hence, formally recognizing GGGI as one the country's key partnering international intergovernmental organizations.

Between 2019 and 2021, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of Mexico (SHCP for its acronym in Spanish) as National Designated Authority (NDA) of the Green Climate Fund (GCF), through the GCF Readiness Programme, has received funding to support activities that enhance and strengthen Mexico's climate finance architecture to mobilize public and private, national, and international, climate financing for mitigation and adaptation projects and programs in the country.

GGGI has worked closely with DAEs in Mexico to develop and strengthen their capacities and ensure compliance with GCF policies and procedures for accreditation and enhanced accreditation purposes.

Ensuring that DAEs and their executing entities comply with fiduciary, environmental and social, gender and M&E standards will enable them to adopt international best practices, fulfill their responsibilities in GCF-funded activities and enhance their ability to present new funding proposals, thereby supporting Mexico in achieving its climate commitments.
