Thematic Evaluation Study: Real-Time Evaluation of ADB’s Initiatives to Support Access to Climate Finance (Complete Report)
Asian Development Bank | May 2014
Abstract
Since the early 1980s, the Asia and Pacific region has been adversely affected by the increased frequency of meteorological, hydrological, and other weather-related disturbances. The region contributed 25% of the world’s gross domestic product from 1980 to 2009, but suffered more than 40% of global economic losses caused by these natural hazards. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) recognizes that vulnerabilities to climate variability and change and greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations are on the rise. Since the 1990s, it has mainstreamed support for clean energy-focused investments for GHG mitigation. Over the past few years, ADB has turned its attention to supporting other mitigation and adaptation measures.
