The Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF), one of the world’s first multilateral climate adaptation finance instruments, was created at the 2001 Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This Fund aims to help vulnerable nations in addressing these negative impacts of climate change. The SCCF is managed by the Global Environment Fund (GEF) and operates in parallel with the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF). Both funds have a mandate to serve the Paris Agreement.
