GEF International Waters Portfolio

GEF is largest investor in multi-country collective management oftransboundary water systems: $1.1 billion GEF/$5 billion co-financing

150 GEF recipient states are cooperating with 23 non-recipientstates on their particular shared water systems.

In working to reverse fisheries depletion, reduce water pollution,and balance conflicting water uses through IWRM, GEFcontributes to water, environment, and community

security as well as regional stability.




GEF5 IW Objectives

• Objective 1: Catalyze multi-state cooperation to balanceconflicting water uses in transboundary surface andgroundwater basins while considering climatic variability andchange

• Objective 2: Catalyze multi-state cooperation to rebuildmarine fisheries and reduce pollution of coasts and LargeMarine Ecosystems while considering climatic variability andchange

• Objective 4: Promote effective management of MarineAreas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ)

• Objective 3: Support foundational capacity building, portfoliolearning, and targeted research needs for joint, ecosystem-

based management of trans-boundary water systems
