Learning Resources

In this section you can find a set of learning resources covering priority topics that have been identified through the various consultations with GEF IW Projects. For each topic, a brief has been prepared to facilitate application and dissemination of knowledge and learning as practical tools for Projects. Each brief comprises an introduction on why the topic was identified as a challenging area for project implementation and a set of 4-5 simple questions that frame the problem from the Project’s viewpoint in an FAQ style. For each question, links to various resources are provided with a brief annotation to quickly identify what is going to be useful. Projects that have lessons or guidance of their own to contribute it to the resource list or to formulate new questions are invited to leave their comments (and email addresses) at the page bottom.
