INTRODUCTION

1. Since the introduction of a Resource Allocation Framework in 2005, the GEF Secretariat

has reported to the GEF Council at every Council meeting on its implementation. The final

progress report on the System for Transparent Allocation of Resources (STAR) for the allocation

of GEF-5 resources was submitted to the Council in May 2014. This is the first progress report of

the STAR for the allocation of GEF-6 Resources.

2. The GEF Secretariat has prepared a Work Program with CEO-recommended PIFs for

Council approval in October 2014. The Work Program (GEF/C.47/11) highlights the project

information and proposed amounts for GEF funding and Agency fees, as well as total Work

Program funds. This current report discusses the Potential Utilizations under STAR that were

recommended by the CEO for inclusion into the work program, pending approval by the Council

at its forthcoming meeting in October 2014. All data is discussed in aggregate numbers, as well

as by regional classifications1. The GEF regions are listed in Annex 1.

UTILIZATIONS

3. Table 1 summarizes the cumulative utilizations (including the current work program

submitted for Council approval) for GEF-6 for the three focal areas to which STAR is applied.

Detailed country utilizations can be found in Annex 2. Utilization figures are country-specific

and do not include global and regional projects, which are funded from the exclusion resources.

utilizations of both LDCs and SIDS. Table 3 summarizes the allocations and utilizations for

these groups for the first work program of GEF-62.

6. Annex 2 illustrates the GEF-6 allocations, the cumulative utilization of countries with

this current work program, and the remainder of the initial allocations that are available for

programming (calculated as the initial allocation less the cumulative utilization)3. All data is

presented by country and by focal area.

2 These are not mutually exclusive groups.

3 As outlined in GEF/C.46/05/Rev.01 paragraphs 23-26, a country with a total STAR allocation amount of up to $7

million will receive full flexibility in programming resources across the three focal areas of biodiversity, climate

change and land degradation. For all countries with aggregate allocations of more than $7 million, a uniform

marginal adjustment of $2 million is implemented.
