Description

TEFOS (Territorios Forestales Sostenibles) is a flagship programme under the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's (FCDO) International Climate Finance (ICF). It provides funding to support the Government of Colombia (GoC) to tackle deforestation in conflict-affected areas, through three programme "Pillars": i.
