Second phase of low-carbon projects benefit communities in Vietnam
UK Minister of State for Energy Security and Net Zero Graham Stuart has just introduced the second phase of the Climate Finance Accelerator (CFA) program at a launch event in Ho Chi Minh City on August 2 with the presence of alumni from the CFA’s previous cohort and investors from across the country.
Launched in Vietnam in 2022, the UK government-funded CFA is a technical assistance program that responds directly to the urgency and scale of the climate crisis. It brings together project developers and financial experts who can develop and finance climate projects at scale, offering technical assistance and support with financial models and pitch materials, as well as advice about enhancing gender equality and social inclusion (GESI).
