grant Background

About the Funding Agency

International Climate Initiative

Since 2008, the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) has been financing climate and biodiversity projects in developing and newly industrialising countries, as well as in countries in transition. In the early years of the programme, its financial resources came from the proceeds of auctioning allowances under the emissions trading scheme. To ensure financial continuity, further funds were made available through the Special Energy and Climate Fund. Both funding mechanisms are now part of the Federal Environment Ministry’s regular budget.

The IKI is a key element of Germany’s climate financing and the funding commitments in the framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity. The Initiative places clear emphasis on climate change mitigation, adaption to the impacts of climate change and the protection of biological diversity. These efforts provide various co-benefits, particularly the improvement of living conditions in partner countries.

Locations

Afghanistan

Afghanistan’s infrastructure base remains severely underdeveloped after decades of conflict, with major gaps in transport, electricity generation and water systems. Connectivity projects linking Central and South Asia have been viewed as potential drivers of trade and economic stabilisation. However, limited fiscal space, sanctions-related financial isolation and weak institutional capacity significantly constrain infrastructure financing and private investment. Sustainable development will depend on improved governance frameworks, regional cooperation and gradual restoration of investor confidence.

American Samoa

American Samoa is an unincorporated territory of the United States with an economy traditionally anchored in tuna processing and government employment, and its development strategy increasingly emphasises modernising infrastructure and diversifying economic activity. Recent territorial programmes have advanced numerous transportation and community infrastructure projects, expanded broadband and digital connectivity, and mobilised U.S. recovery funding to support capital improvements and economic resilience. Continued investment in infrastructure, economic diversification beyond fisheries, and expanded financial sector capacity are seen as important to enhancing long-term growth and reducing dependency on federal aid.
