About LoGIC

Local Government Initiative on Climate Change (LoGIC) is a multi-donor collaborative initiative of GoB, UNDP, UNCDF, European Union (EU), Embassy of Sweden (SIDA) and Embassy of Denmark. It aims to enhance the capacity of vulnerable communities, Local Government Institutions and civil society organizations for planning and financing climate change adaptation solutions in selected climate-vulnerable areas. This project was initially designed for 4 years and based on an independent assessment and success of initial results; the project was extended up to June 30, 2023, for 2 years. To sustain the results and scale up the LoGIC model nationally to innovate and institutionalize the climate financing model across Bangladesh for further two years from June 2023 to June 2025, also extended the project working area in two districts of the Chattogram Hill Tracts (CHT), Rangamati and Bandarban. The local Government Division is the implementing lead of the project in partnership with UNDP and UNCDF.

How WE WORK

The project envisages a twofold sustainability of efforts beyond its stipulated life.

Community Risks Assessment

CRA is a participatory process for assessing hazards, vulnerabilities, risks, ability to cope, preparing coping strategies and finally preparing a risk reduction options implementation plan by the local community.

Community Resilient Fund

CRF is to provide small-scale, household adaptation grants to vulnerable households in high climate risk wards to enable the households to climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction activities that will result in immediate benefits for the households’ livelihoods.

Performance Based Climate Resilient Grants

PBCRG is a financing mechanism for local government action on climate change adaptation that was developed within the framework of UNCDF’s global Local Climate Adaptive Living (LoCAL) project.
