The CIF initiative in Saint Lucia captures the lessons learned from Private Sector Participation in the Pilot Programme for Climate Resilience (PPCR) and other relevant initiatives in the country. In order to promote Private Sector investment in and response to climate change, the project entails the: 

•  Assessment of what knowledge is available to the Private Sector in Saint Lucia to facilitate participation and identify the pathways and barriers to accessing this knowledge. 
• Evaluation of the extent to which the Private Sector in Saint Lucia has participated in PPCR and other relevant initiatives. 
• Assessment of the policy and regulatory environment that the Saint Lucia Private Sector operates in and how this impacts participation and engagement in climate change adaptation projects and initiatives. 
• Determination of valuable lessons learned under the PPCR and other relevant initiatives, towards improving Private Sector participation in building climate resilience in Saint Lucia.

Subsequently to these evaluations, the CIF proposed a roadmap aimed at providing recommendations to enhance the enabling conditions and build requisite capacities over the medium-to-long term for the private sector to be streamlined into Saint Lucia’s climate change adaptation and resilience building. These recommendations covered three broad areas: governance, financing and the socio-economic environment.
