This case study presents the activities, outcomes, benefits and challenges of a mentorship exchange between Malawi Environmental Endowment Trust (MEET), as the mentee, and Profonanpe, as the mentor, in order to facilitate knowledge transfer and mutual learning around direct access modalities for climate financing through the Adaptation Fund (AF) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF). Both funds have similar accreditation requirements and, once an entity is accredited by either of the funds, it can later apply to the other through a fast-track. Given that MEET already had the nomination from Malawi\u2019s Government to become a National Implementing Entity (NIE) of the AF, MEET and Profonanpe decided to focus the mentorship in the AF\u2019s complete procedure, and review certain topics of the GCF fast-track and Readiness Program.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The mentorship culminated in an exchange visit by the MEET Team to Profonanpe office in Peru where the priority operational areas were discussed in more detail and Profonanpe presented their accreditation experience and their entire operations procedures as a whole. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n As a result of the success of the mentorship exchange, MEET and Profonanpe established a good working rela- tionship on the basis of increasing direct access to climate financing. MEET has gained the confidence to complete the accreditation application and initial submissions as part of the accreditation application process, which has a pending review from the AF. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
