The Climate Change Commission (CCC) on Wednesday called for the submission of a climate change project proposal for local government units (LGUs).
This was to give them an opportunity to access the People's Survival Fund (PSF), which was created by Republic Act 10174 as an annual fund to implement climate change adaptation projects.
"Local government units (LGUs) can now submit project proposals to access the People's Survival Fund (PSF) &mdash; a grant facility for LGUs to implement local climate change adaptation initiatives," CCC's Vice Chair and Executive Director Robert Borje said in a social media post.
