The EBRD is currently active in Morocco through the Green Economy Finance Facility (GEFF) and the Morocco Green Value Chain (GVC) Facility, with the support of the European Union (EU) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
These lines of credit aim to enable the financing of green technologies via loans or leasing through local partner financial institutions but also to reduce gender gaps and promote women’s access to green finance, thus contributing to the full participation of women in the green economy.
As part of these programmes, the EBRD has launched a gender baseline study to better understand men’s and women entrepreneurs’ awareness of climate change risks; their differentiated needs, priorities, vulnerabilities to climate change and adaptation strategies; and their access to climate finance for adaptation and mitigation measures.
This event will be an opportunity to present the findings and recommendations of the study, with the participation of several key partners to discuss the topic.
