Adaptation Trust Fund
The purpose of setting up the Adaptation Fund is to finance specific adaptation projects and adaptation plans in developing countries that have joined the Kyoto Protocol and are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. According to the clean development mechanism, emission reduction projects implemented in developing countries can obtain CER credits, and industrialized countries can trade and sell these credits to partially achieve the emission reduction targets stipulated in the Kyoto Protocol.
The Adaptation Fund is mainly funded by the sale of certified emission reduction credits. The income from credit transactions is equivalent to 2% of the credit value of certified emission reductions issued to clean development projects every year. The fund also receives donations from the government, the private sector and individuals. The Adaptation Fund shall be supervised and managed by the Adaptation Fund Board.
