Donor countries are contributing to the LDCF on a voluntary basis (further information is available from http://www.gefweb.org/ interior.aspx?id=194&ekmensel=c580fa7b_48_62_btnlink). Its work is focused in two areas: support to decentralized public investments and support to private investments through microfinancing. Within this context, the UNCDF approach is to support the LDCs in piloting small-scale investments that can be replicated on a larger scale with the assistance of other development partners who can bring additional financial support (further information is available from http://www.uncdf.org/english/about_uncdf/ least_developed_countries.php).
