In Uganda, the Devolved Climate Finance (DCF) mechanism serves as the country’s delivery mechanism under LIFE-AR. This summary document unpacks how Uganda, through its Devolved Climate Finance (DCF) delivery mechanism, is operationalising both its long term development ambitions as well as the LDC Vision 2050.

For Malawi, the delivery mechanism provides a pathway for strengthening decentralised systems so that climate responses are coordinated, inclusive and scalable. This summary explains how Malawi’s delivery mechanism works and how it supports locally led climate-resilient development.

Effective, inclusive communication is one of the most powerful drivers of climate action. In Uganda, it became the bridge between national climate ambitions and the realities of communities in four pilot districts selected in the LIFE-AR initiative. The LIFE-AR national and local teams used it as a strategic tool to build trust, shift perceptions and mobilise communities.

LIFE-AR has set up an ambitious target of at least 70% of climate finance being invested at the local level to support community-prioritized investments by 2030. In this paper, the authors draw the lessons from the Establishment phase in applying the 70:30 principle in countries.

LIFE-AR national platforms take a country-led, principles and partnership-based, “business unusual” approach to promote long term investment and planning, flexible and adaptive management, and inclusion of stakeholders from all corners of society.
