The project is implemented in partnership with the MoEF&CC by the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU). This project is part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI). BMU supports this initiative on the basis of a decision adopted by the German Bundestag.
