Development of an IGF Roadmap and Strategy and CRM Framework for Lesotho

Lesotho faces growing climate-related threats that endanger its financial stability, economic resilience, and vulnerable communities—particularly those dependent on climate-sensitive livelihoods. The country’s financial sector currently lacks a cohesive framework to manage climate risks, mobilize green finance, and coordinate sector-wide resilience efforts. Technical and regulatory capacity gaps further limit the ability of financial institutions to respond effectively.

This project will develop and institutionalize a strategic framework that embeds climate risk management, green finance principles, and resilience-building into national financial sector policies and supervisory practices. It will also advance financial inclusion by ensuring that climate-vulnerable groups—such as smallholder farmers, women, and youth—gain access to financial tools and services that support climate adaptation. Through alignment with international best practices and strong collaboration among regulators, policymakers, and market actors, the initiative aims to build a more sustainable, inclusive, and climate-resilient financial system in Lesotho. Key activities include preparing an Inclusive Green Finance Roadmap and Strategy, assessing climate risk management across financial institutions, developing supervisory guidelines, and delivering targeted consultations and capacity-building programs.

More Specifically, The Project Aims To:

  • Understand the landscape of sustainable finance activities in Lesotho.
  • Develop an Inclusive Green Financing Strategy and Roadmap (IGFSR) for Lesotho benchmarked on international practices and in close consultation with all key national stakeholders.
  • Develop a climate risk management (CRM) framework for Lesotho’s financial sector.
  • Build the capacity of the Central Bank of Lesotho and financial institutions on climate risk management and the IGFSR.
