Cook Islands: First and fastest Green Climate Fund country project
Incheon, Republic of Korea – The first single-country project in the Cook Islands took 20 days from GCF Board approval to the first disbursement of funding. The USD 13.4 million project, of which USD 12.5 million is funded by the Green Climate Fund (GCF), focusses on improving health outcomes for all Cook Islanders and was developed by the government, with support from GCF. With higher temperatures increasing the spread of disease-causing pathogens and many infectious diseases, this project will bolster the climate resilience of national health systems in the Cook Islands.
