Bogota, Colombia Global Green Growth Institute A tiempo completo

**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.

Through strategic partnerships, GGGI has collaborated with the Government of Colombia to promote green growth and investment policies. These alliances include collaborations with the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, and the National Planning Department (DNP). Since 2014, GGGI has supported the DNP in advancing a green growth vision and transition plan for Colombia to support climate goals and the achievement of the SDGs. GGGI supported the development of the Green Growth Working Group led by the DNP (2016-2018), which produced valuable information for the design of the Green Growth Policy - GGP (adopted through CONPES 3934 of 2018).

Additionally, Colombia has made significant progress in designing and implementing standardized methodologies, such as Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and the Colombian Green Taxonomy, to ensure the sustainability of national investments. However, economic and financial investments are essential to mobilizing resources for the socioeconomic and cultural transformations necessary in the country to advance the climate transition. Although the Government of Colombia has made significant progress in developing a robust policy framework and updating the country's National Climate Finance Strategy to promote sustainable climate finance and resource mobilization to meet mitigation and adaptation objectives, it is necessary to increase climate investments in strategic sectors for a just transition towards low-carbon and climate-resilient economic development.

On the other hand, the Colombian government has adopted policies to promote sustainable, low-carbon, and climate-resilient development. Mitigation and adaptation to climate change are national priorities. Colombia's 2021-2023 GCF Country Program is expected to mobilize GCF resources to support the objectives of Colombia's updated NDC, National Climate Change Policy, National Long-Term Climate Strategy 2050, and sectoral plans and territorial issues on climate change. On the other hand, the National Development Plan (PND) 2022-2026, adopted through Law 2294 of 2023, establishes climate action, the control of deforestation, and the construction of climate resilience as national priorities.

Priorities for GCF financing in Colombia are established through the Collegiate Body, which meets periodically to discuss the country's project financing needs through the GCF and to review and support GCF financing proposals. The Collegiate Body is made up of the PND, the MADS, the MHCP, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Presidential Agency for International Cooperation (APC).

In Colombia, three accredited Direct Access Entities (Fondo Acción, Findeter, and Bancoldex) and one nominated entity are in the accreditation process (Finagro). Finagro is Colombia's largest financing provider for the AFOLU sector. FINAGRO operates as a second-tier bank, that is, it delivers resources under favorable conditions to financial institutions so that they grant credits to productive projects. To achieve its objective, Finagro is funded through Agricultural Development Titles (TDA), whose conditions are defined by the Board of Directors of the Banco de la República and makes its placement following what is established by the National Agricultural Credit Commission (CNCA). Thanks to this scheme, agricultural producers can access financing in the lowest market conditions, given that the CNCA establishes ceiling rates at which agricultural development credit can be registered with Finagro. In 2023, Finagro's loan portfolio was valued at USD 10,549 million and included 1,319,000 individual credit operations, of which small agricultural producers represented 82%.

Additionally, Finagro needs to implement the SGAS and the Gender and SSE policies efficiently. To do so, it depends on financial intermediaries to develop analysis and collect information from the beneficiaries. Therefore, it is necessary for Finagro intermediaries to adopt compatible policies and ESMS. Bancamía, a microfinance institution that manages the majority of Finagro's microcredit operations, is developing its own ESMS and requires support to implement it, including training its staff.

Despite steady progress, Finagro's accreditation requires further expert support to address three outstanding barriers: Finagro's limited capacity to implement ESMS and gender and EAS policies, the limited capacity of first-tier financial intermediaries to implement climate investments, and the lack of credit instruments aligned with the criteria of Colombia's Green Tax
