The FGEF has been working to promote protection of the global environment in developing countries since it was established by the French government in 1994.
Our activities are in line with the strategic priorities of French development assistance policy.
Each project or programm co-financed by the FGEF is submitted under the responsability of one of the five institutions represented on its steering committee.
The FGEF is mandated to cofinance development projects with high environmental component in the areas of biodiversity, the greenhouse effect, international waters, land degradation and desertification, persistent organic pollutants and the stratospheric ozone layer.
