Unlocking the potential of nature to deliver climate solutions and improve livelihoods.
The Global Centre on Biodiversity for Climate (GCBC) is a UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) programme that supports developing countries in shaping decisions and policies that better value, protect, restore, and sustainably manage biodiversity while strengthening climate resilience and supporting poverty alleviation.
GCBC is funded by the UK’s Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) with International Climate Finance and managed in partnership with DAI.
