The GEF serves as the designated financial mechanism for the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), as well as a financial mechanism for the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD).

GEF project support under this objective will be provided for transboundary surface and groundwater systems, groundwater concerns and opportunities would be integrated into management of surface water systems (and surface water concerns into transboundary groundwater) so that basins or aquifers serve as management units.

For coastal and marine ecosystems, the GEF will utilize similar foundational capacity development as States adopt ecosystem-based approaches at the LME and local ICM scales. Shifting currents and changes in distribution, abundance, and life cycles of marine resources as well as coastal storm vulnerability and sea-level rise may be included in the GEF-supported new efforts.
