- After they are shut down, heritage buildings housing Palestinian schools in the old city of Jerusalem will be seized. (...) Lack of suitable school buildings Palestinian students are deprived of learning in proper school buildings. (...) The majority of schools are situated in rented residential buildings. Of these, many schools are scattered; they are not located in a single building.

To this end, building contractors, architects and construction companies are advised and given conceptual support. (...) The focus will be on the promotion of public transport services and of non- motorized transport, with special attention being paid to aspects of climate protection Ongoing, Ukraine Germany FC C C /SB I/2012/10 20 G E.12-70381 Activity Purpose/target of activity Date and location Annex II Party, implementing agency Web link for further information Energy efficiency in residential buildings The project aims at improving policies to increase energy efficiency at the national and municipal levels. (...) The reconstruction turned an outdated, energy- intensive, soviet-style building into a cutting-edge facility. It is a pilot demonstration building, and the replication potential of the project is high.

By strategic programs, 14 projects fall under Energy Efficiency in Buildings (SP1), seven under Energy Efficiency in Industry (SP2), eight under Renewable Energy (SP3), one under Energy Production from Biomass (SP4), and three under Sustainable Urban Transport (SP5), respectively.

For both FSPs and MSPs, the GEF agencies receive a 10 percent fee on the top of the GEF grant for managing the projects. 7 reduce the emissions and energy consumption of buildings by reducing the demand for energy services, increasing technical energy efficiency, and integrating passive and active renewable sources of energy in the building system itself; and the “Strategic Program for West Africa: Energy Component,” which is analytically described in Part II. 7. (...) The projects are categorized according to the six strategic programs that form the basis for mitigation programming for the GEF-4 replenishment period, as follows: 24 projects fall under Energy Efficiency in Buildings (SP1), 17 under Energy Efficiency in Industry (SP2), 8 under Renewable Energy (SP3), 1 under Energy Production from Biomass (SP4), 5 under Sustainable Urban Transport (SP5), and 13 multi-focal area projects under the Land Use, Land-Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) strategic program (SP6), respectively.4 In addition to these 68 projects, there is one project supporting the 4th Operational Phase of the GEF Small Grants Program; one project supporting the preparation of the Third National Communication (enabling activities); and one project supporting the Global Development Marketplace competition, which is organized by the World Bank. 9.
