The objective of the Fund is to reduce pollution discharges that have an impact on the seas of East Asia by leveraging investments in pollution reduction through the removal of technical institutional and financial barriers.

Expected Outcomes:

  • increased investments in facilities and services that reduce land-based pollution
  • replication of cost-effective pollution reduction technologies and technique at the subnational, national and regional levels
