Behind the Numbers: A closer look at GEF achievements

The numbers tell a story: 20 years, $9.2 billion invested directly, $40 billion in cofinancing, and 2,700 projects in more than 165 countries. Together, these numbers make us the world’s leading public financial fund dedicated to smart environmentally sound choices that boost local economies and protect the planet. Yet behind those numbers is a bigger story that comes from the positive impact GEF investments have on the two billion still waiting for access to electricity, clean water, and other services others easily enjoy. It is the story of a unique networked organization that brings together the public sector, businesses, and civil society to make a global impact. Author: GEF Pages: 24
