GEF FOLUR Impact Program Addendum II: Global Food Systems, Land Use, and Restoration Program (Commitment Deadline June 4, 2021)

This document, identified as GEF ID 10576, is an Addendum II to the Program Framework Document (PFD) for the GEF-7 Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration (FOLUR) Impact Program. Submitted on April 15, 2020, with a Program Commitment Deadline of June 4, 2021, this multi-focal area program aims to promote sustainable, integrated landscapes and efficient food value and supply chains at scale over an 84-month duration. The program is global in scope, with specific participation from Guinea, Nicaragua, Uzbekistan, and Kenya. It is funded through the GEF Trust Fund (GET) and involves the World Bank and FAO as agencies, with governments of participating countries and other institutions serving as executing partners. Key activities and approaches include influencing models, demonstrating innovative approaches, deploying innovative financial instruments, transforming policy and regulatory environments, convening multi-stakeholder alliances, strengthening institutional capacity, and engaging diverse stakeholders such as local communities, the private sector (SMEs, capital providers, large corporations), civil society, academia, and indigenous peoples. The program emphasizes gender equality through participation, access to benefits/services, capacity development, and access/control over natural resources, utilizing sex-disaggregated and gender-sensitive indicators. Core components involve integrated programs focusing on food systems, land use, and restoration, including smallholder farming, food value chains, deforestation-free sourcing, landscape restoration, comprehensive land use planning, sustainable food systems, and sustainable commodity production. It also incorporates capacity building, knowledge exchange (South-South, North-South), innovation, knowledge generation, training, workshops, learning, adaptive management, and indicators to measure change. The program addresses Sustainable Development Goals and focal areas such as Land Degradation (Sustainable Land Management, Sustainable Forest, Sustainable Livelihoods, Restoration and Rehabilitation of Degraded Lands, Land Degradation Neutrality, Land Cover change, Carbon stocks). It is marked for Climate Change Mitigation (score 1) but not Climate Change Adaptation (score 0).
