The UN Climate Technology Centre and Network, the implementation arm of the UNFCCC Technology Mechanism, has opened a regional call under the Adaptation Fund Climate Innovation Accelerator. Ten projects across Asia Pacific will be selected, each receiving up to USD 150,000 of technical assistance to pilot a climate-adaptation innovation. This is support in kind, not a cheque: the budget is awarded to a CTCN Network Partner who then does the diagnostic, benchmarking, procurement and monitoring work with you. **What you get:** - Up to USD 150,000 of technical assistance per project - A CTCN Network Partner, selected through a UN bidding process, assigned to diagnose the problem and build the solution with you - Up to 20 percent of the budget can go on equipment - An operational system at the end of the technical assistance - Institutional capacity strengthening and access to international climate expertise - Knowledge exchange across the CTCN network of more than 1,000 partners **What you'll do:** - Submit a proposal for a small-scale climate-adaptation innovation to pilot - Read the guiding questions and selection criteria first, then complete the application template - Email the completed template to ctcn@un.org - Secure endorsement from your country's National Designated Entity and the Adaptation Fund Designated Authority - Pilot the innovation with the assigned partner and generate evidence of impact
