A new multi-donor trust fund, the Urban Climate Change Resilience Trust Fund (UCCRTF) has been established under the Urban Financing Partnership Facility (UFPF).

The UCCRTF will help build resilience to the effects of climate variability and climate change within medium-sized cities in Asia, particularly to reduce the vulnerability of the urban poor. It will use a systems-centered approach that supports making climate change a central element of city planning. This will be linked to the implementation of infrastructure and policy or institutional interventions, as well as strong knowledge, capacity building, and networking components. All developing member countries will be eligible for UCCRTF support.
