Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) is a leading analysis and advisory organization committed to promoting sustainable economic development while tackling climate change. With expertise spanning finance and public policy, CPI works closely with governments, businesses, and financial institutions to design innovative strategies that support economic growth and environmental resilience. CPI’s vision is to build a sustainable, inclusive, and resilient global economy through forward-thinking financial and policy solutions. Its initiatives are grounded in deep research and aim to support both climate mitigation and adaptation efforts. The organization collaborates with partners worldwide to mobilize investment in climate-positive ventures and ensure that climate finance flows to the regions and sectors where it is most needed. CPI’s approach emphasizes innovation in blended finance models, enabling the leveraging of private capital in developing economies to address the pressing challenges of climate change. Through its various projects, including the Catalytic Climate Finance Facility, CPI continues to play a transformative role in building financial structures that support climate resilience, especially in underfunded and high-impact areas. CPI’s ultimate goal is to create systems that not only address the environmental crisis but also drive long-term socioeconomic development in the world’s most vulnerable regions.

The Catalytic Climate Finance Facility (CC Facility), established through a partnership between CPI and Convergence, has announced its fourth call for proposals. This grant cycle focuses on innovative, scalable, and market-ready blended climate finance solutions tailored to developing economies. The 2025 round specifically targets sustainable agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, as well as broader climate adaptation and mitigation projects throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Eligible projects may address a variety of climate challenges, including renewable energy deployment, marine conservation, biodiversity protection, and climate-resilient agriculture. These projects must utilize blended finance approaches such as debt, venture capital, or project finance platforms to mobilize private investment. The CC Facility is designed to support solutions that can bridge funding gaps in climate action by unlocking private capital, especially in underfunded and high-impact regions. By offering not only grant funding but also tailored technical assistance, the facility aims to accelerate implementation and scaling of these projects. Support includes strategic guidance, operational support, and fundraising assistance to overcome market barriers. The initiative reflects CPI’s broader mission to transform climate finance by nurturing innovative financial models that build ecosystems and generate long-lasting impact for vulnerable communities.
