The GEF Council approved, in September 2005, the Resource Allocation Framework (RAF) a system for allocating resources to countries based on global environmental priorities and country-level performance. The initial biodiversity and climate change indicative allocations for the entire GEF-4 replenishment period were determined for all eligible countries and publicly disclosed to the Council, to recipient countries, GEF Agencies, and the public in September 2006. 

At the midpoint of GEF-4, following the RAF rules, the initial indicative allocations have been revised based on a mid-term reallocation process, taking into account resource utilization during the first half of GEF-4, and using updated indicators for both the GEF Benefits Index (GBI) and the GEF Performance Index (GPI).
            

Revised Allocations for Second Half of GEF-4

The revised allocations for the second half of GEF-4 are presented in the following two tables:
Biodiversity -  Climate Change

Additional information on how the RAF has been applied to arrive at allocations to be made available during the second half of GEF-4 can be found in the RAF midterm reallocation disclosure document: English, French and Spanish versions.
 

Refer to the technical note for a more detailed explanation of the process of the RAF midterm reallocation.

 
Rules for utilization of RAF resources after July 1, 2008, have also been developed for countries in the group
