UK Contribution to the Adaptation Fund There is an urgent need for donors to collectively scale up adaptation finance, and to do so in ways which are easily accessible for developing countries. This programme will respond to this need by funding adaptation action in a way which responds to developing country demands.   The Adaptation Fund (AF) supports small-scale (up to $20m is available per country over the life of the fund) adaptation projects in developing countries. In 2018 it was agreed that the AF serve the Paris Agreement in addition to the Kyoto Protocol under which it was initially set up.  Providing support to the AF will complement the FCDO’s wider initiatives and programmes on adaptation.  This includes the Green Climate Fund (GCF), to which the UK is the largest contributor and is a significantly larger source of adaptation finance.
