<span style="font-size:10.0pt">UNCDF is the UN’s capital investment agency for the world’s 47 least developed countries. With its capital mandate and instruments, UNCDF offers “last mile” finance models that unlock public and private resources, especially at
the domestic level, to reduce poverty and support local economic development. UNCDF’s financing models work through two channels: financial inclusion that expands the opportunities for individuals, households, and small businesses to participate in the local
economy, providing them with the tools they need to climb out of poverty and manage their financial lives; and by showing how localized investments — through fiscal decentralization, innovative municipal finance, and structured project finance — can drive
public and private funding that underpins local economic expansion and sustainable development. By strengthening how finance works for poor people at the household, small enterprise, and local infrastructure levels, UNCDF contributes to SDG 1 on eradicating
poverty and SDG 17 on the means of implementation. By identifying those market segments where innovative financing models can have transformational impact in helping to reach the last mile and address exclusion and inequalities of access, UNCDF contributes
to a number of different SDGs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt">UNCDF’s Local Climate Adaptive Living (LoCAL) facility was designed and launched in 2011 with the aim of promoting climate change–resilient communities and local economies by establishing a standard and internationally recognized
country-based mechanism to channel climate finance to local government authorities in LDCs and to increase local resilience, thereby contributing to achievement of the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly the goals of
poverty eradication (SDG 1) and climate action (SDG 13). LoCAL increases awareness and capacities to respond to climate change at the local level, integrates climate change adaptation into local governments’ planning and budgeting systems in a participatory
and gender-sensitive manner, and increases the amount of finance available to local governments for climate change adaptation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:14.65pt;vertical-align:baseline;outline: 0px">
<span style="font-size:10.0pt">LoCAL combines performance-based climate resilience grants (PBCRGs) with technical and capacity-building support. PBCRGs ensure programming and verification of climate change expenditures at the local level and offer strong incentives
for general performance improvements targeting areas of importance for enhanced resilience. The PBCRG can be seen as an earmarked cross-sectoral grant with conditions attached to the use of its funding for climate change adaptation beyond business as usual.
Combined with regular grant allocations, PBCRGs enable 100 per-cent of the investments in climate-sensitive sectors to become climate resilient over time. They include a set of minimum conditions, performance measures and a menu of eligible investments. LoCAL
focuses on the delivery of four outputs that will directly contribute to increasing local governments’ access to climate finance and building resilience to climate change:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt">Based on the abovementioned LoCAL Board decision and considering the growing number of countries and respective local government authorities (LGAs) interested in adopting the LoCAL mechanism, an increased demand has emerged for
the standardization of indicators and metrics to guide and ensure effective promotion of local resilience and climate smart investments at the subnational level through LoCAL/PBCRGs, while setting up a benchmark for standardized comparability among participating
LGAs and LoCAL countries. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt">This endeavour complements international efforts to support cities and regions, both in rural and urban areas, in the promotion of de facto resilient communities and sustainable development pathways. ISO 37120 Sustainable Development
of Communities: Indicators for City Services and Quality of Life, for instance, defines a comprehensive set of 100 indicators that enables any city, of any size, to measure and compare its social, economic, and environmental performance in relation to other
cities from around the world, currently being applied by more than 60 cities worldwide. Likewise, ISO 37123 Indicators for Resilient Cities is currently being developed within ISO to create standardized metrics for resilience to assist local governments to
determine their exposure to and capacity to cope with potential hazards, extreme events or stresses while maintaining their essential functions and safeguarding their population.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt">ISO creates documents that provide requirements, specifications, guidelines or characteristics that can be used consistently to ensure that materials, products, processes and services are fit for their purpose. Therefore, LoCAL
as an ISO standard to help local governments address climate change is a solid base on which to create public policy or adopt a standard mechanism for local governments that meets international commitments and addresses the many challenges that climate change
brings. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
