About the Programme
The Green Cities, Infrastructure and Energy Programme (GCIEP) delivers support to low- and middle-income countries seeking to accelerate the development of sustainable cities and resilient infrastructure. Working across selected countries globally, the programme offers technical assistance, capacity building and policy support, drawing on expertise and capabilities from the UK Government, private sector, public agencies, NGOs, academia and business. In Mozambique, GCIEP aims to increase international climate finance flows to fund low-carbon and climate-resilient projects, and support secondary cities to become climate resilient whilst achieving their sustainable economic growth ambitions.
