Total requested amount and currency Country name: Rwanda Name of institution (representing National Designated Authority or Focal Point): Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA) Name of official: Mrs Coletha RUHAMYA Position: Director General & GCF NDA FP Telephone: +250 7 88305717 Email: cruhamya@rema.gov.rw Full Office address: Rwanda Environment Management Authority, KG 7 avenue, Kigali, Rwanda 30/06/2017 Not Applicable National Designated Authority Delivery partner Accredited entity Name of institution: Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) Name of official: Dexippos Agourides Position: Head of Programs, Africa and the Middle East Telephone: +82 2 2096 9991 Email: dex.agourides@gggi.org Full Office address: 19 F Jeongdong Building, 2115, Jeongdonggil, Junggu, Seoul 04518 Republic of Korea Readiness and preparatory support to implement Green City Development Projects in Rwanda s Secondary Cities This proposal seeks funding to support the Government of Rwanda (GoR) for the development of implementation strategies toward the operationalization of key climate change frameworks including the Rwandan Green Growth and Climate Resilient Strategy (20112050); the revised Vision 2020; the Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy s (EDPRS II: 2013/18) Green Growth Priorities and the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). The green city detailed physical plan will provide the GoR with clear tools and strategies enabling it to operationalize the National Roadmap for Green Secondary Cities Development of 2015 as part of the implementation of the NDC focusing on both mitigation and adaptation outcomes. The readiness fund will also be used to enhance the NDA s capacity. This application builds upon GGGI s ongoing work in six secondary cities, supporting local authorities, and has a potential to join efforts with other agencies doing work in secondary cities in Rwanda (e.g. World Bank, UNHabitat, and others). Coordinating a multistakeholder engagement, publicprivate partnership approach, GGGI has been supporting the GoR to identify projects and programmes that enable sustainable development of Rwanda s six secondary cities. That is done by promoting the green socioeconomic opportunities, in line with the implementation of the Rwandan Climate Resilience Framework. However, these secondary cities are urbanizing rapidly and need detailed physical plans to guide their sustainable development. The Government of Rwanda through Rwanda Environmental Management Authority, Ministry of Infrastructure, Rwanda Housing Authority, Rwanda Land Management and Use Authority and GGGI will work closely with GCF, development partners, civil society, private sector and other stakeholders to ensure that the GoR has improved capacity to develop and deliver green city development concepts, identify investment priorities, and is ready to qualify for, and receive GCF climate finance. USD 600,000 8. Anticipated duration 12 months 9. Is the country receiving other Readiness and Yes No

PAGE 3 OF 30 Ver. 03 December 2017 Preparatory Support related to the GCF? In November 2015, the Government of Rwanda signed to receive the Readiness Support of USD300,000. That support is given to strengthen the institutional capacities of the NDA of Rwanda to effectively fulfil given roles, and responsibilities related to the GCF, and to prepare country programmes through a multi stakeholder engagement process. Currently, the 2 nd disbursement is to be received to complete the readiness activities. The Government of Rwanda did not receive Readiness Support from GCF in 2017.

PAGE 10 OF 30 Ver. 03 December 2017 SECTION 3: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Please explain how this grant will help deliver on the country s readiness needs as identified above and build on institutions, processes or existing work already underway in the country (maximum 500 words) 1. This readiness programme is to support and facilitate the implementation of the Government of Rwanda s Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS II). 2. Under EDPRS II, the GoR has identified Six Secondary Cities Huye, Muhanga, Rubavu, Nyagatare, Rusizi, Musanze; as poles of economic growth under Priority 4 and Green Urbanization under Priority 5. The aim is to transform the economic geography of Rwanda by facilitating urbanisation and promoting Green Secondary Cities. 3. This readiness programme is based on Rwanda s emerging body of strategic plans and policies on urban planning. Among the main guiding documents is the National Urbanization Policy, the national policy for urbanization that is founded on principles of sustainability and resiliency of low carbon, safe and healthy urban environment, integrated planning of economic, physical and environmental planning, participatory planning, sustainable land use, appropriate urban management tools and social inclusion. The vision of this policy is to offer liveable green urban environments. The policy objectives include resource efficiency and compact urban growth through integrated urban planning and management and state that urban development shall reflect the efficient use of land, strategic investment phasing and based upon green development principles, and physical planning should aim at improving quality of life and mitigation of disaster risk. The National Roadmap for green secondary cities development is an implementation tool for EDPRS 2 and the National Strategy for Climate Change and Low carbon development. It identifies roles and responsibilities for the development of the secondary cities and a guiding document for urbanization and infrastructure development based on green growth. It provides strategies, guidelines and actions that are needed to be taken for green city development in term of urban planning, construction, energy, transport, water, waste management and job creation. Local Urban Development Plans have conceptualized urban land use. These documents are in place and adopted and this readiness project aims to increase level of needed details to guide implementation and achievement of Integrated approach for sustainable and climate resilient infrastructure and services which provide for green jobs and private sector investment. 4. The Secondary Cities detailed physical Plan will promote sustainable urban development for the anticipated rapid growth, appropriate highly visionary urban planning and development tools need to be established in these cities. These tools guided by the strategic vision and branding of the respective cities will include plans, proposals, development and design guidelines. This will enable the implementation of existing strategies for Green and Sustainable urban development 5. In addition to the activities identified, this Readiness will provide immediate capacity to the Secondary Cities District OneStopCentres which are the implementers of Government s policies and strategies related to land use planning and management and infrastructure development at the Districtlevel. Moreover, inclusive growth in regard to gender, safeguard and social protection will be a key component of the outcome in the Green Secondary Cities development as already articulated in the National Roadmap for Green Secondary City Development as well as the recently finalized Rwanda infrastructure gender mainstreaming strategy 6. This proposal also supports the Government of Rwanda in achieving its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by addressing: o SDG 7: Affordable and clean energy o SDG 8: Decent work and economic growth o SDG 11: Sustainable cities and communities o SDG 13: Climate action 7. This Readiness proposal addresses three out of five enablingpillars of the National Determined Contribution (NDC): finance; capacity building and knowledge management; innovation and infrastructure. Indeed, this Readiness

PAGE 11 OF 30 Ver. 03 December 2017 programme is aligned with the following Rwanda NDC programmes of action related to mitigation and adaptation activities: Iintegrated approach to sustainable land use planning and management; Implementation of Low carbon urban systems; Efficient resilient transport system; and Green industry and private sector development. The successful implementation of the Readiness grant will require a close coordination and collaboration among the key government and nongovernmental stakeholders. Therefore, strengthening existing institutions for Green Secondary Cities development at the national and subnational level will be a core activity delivered by this proposal.

Please attach an implementation map or describe how funds will be managed by the NDA/FP or delivery partner If the entity implementing the readiness support is not an accredited entity of the GCF, please complete the Financial Management Capacity Assessment (FMCA) questionnaire and submit it with this proposal. Having been given authority by the GCF National Accredited Entity (The Rwanda Ministry of Environment), the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), who has a delivery partner agreement with GCF, is officially nominated by the NDA to be a delivery partner for the execution and day to day management of the readiness fund. GGGI therefore, will be responsible for the overall management of the project once funds are released and will be reporting both to the NDA and the GCF with which it would have concluded a bilateral agreement that will enable it to have administrative communication with the fund. This entails management of personnel, fund disbursements, monitoring, evaluation and reporting to GCF. A qualified and experienced consulting firm will be hired on short term basis to execute needed technical work on the ground to develop the secondary city detailed plan based on the background study document and findings from multiple stakeholders both at the National and SubNational levels carried out by the NDA and GGGI. Also, a capacity building program will be required as a component of the firm s deliverables in addition to elaborating an inception, draft and final report to be directly presented to the NDA officials throughout the project cycle.
