T
he USAID Climate Economic Analysis for
Development, Investment, and Resilience
(CEADIR) project helps governments, the
private sector, and civil society make the business
and economic case for investing in climate change
mitigation and adaptation. With CEADIR assistance,
developing countries can assess, implement and scale
up low-carbon, climate-resilient development. CEADIR
clients have access to global best practices and
innovative tools for sound analysis of and investment
in adaptation (AD), clean energy (CE), and sustainable
landscapes (SL). CEADIR also supports Low Emission
Development Strategies (LEDS) and helps mobilize
financing (FI) from private and public sources.
CEADIR Supports
Adaptation (AD)
Climate change is global, but its impacts are
local. Communities worldwide need greater
resilience to adapt to changing temperatures,
rainfall, storms and sea level rise. CEADIR helps
countries identify, plan for and implement highimpact, cost-effective climate-resilient actions.

Finance (FI)
Dr. Eric Hyman
Substantial public and private sector funding is needed
for climate change mitigation and adaptation. CEADIR
helps countries access new funding sources by supporting
readiness for climate financing, providing new inclusive
financial instruments, and strengthening local capacity to
plan, implement and monitor projects. CEADIR connects
key climate financiers—international and regional banks,
national development banks, and local financial institutions—
with project developers, governments and civil society, and
facilitates partnerships for climate-resilient development.
