05 Refine Portfolio Strategy

Establish and iteratively refine your integrated investment strategy at the portfolio level

Considerations


  • Identify what new integrated climate-SRHR investments you want to make based on the performance of the most recent round of funding. Keep in mind that performance should ideally be measured in terms of outcomes and process indicators over several years.

  • Establish and iteratively adjust performance targets based on your learning cycles.

  • Incentivize the integration of climate-health-gender considerations across funding portfolio(s). If your institution funds climate work in a separate portfolio, how might you work with those internal stakeholders to integrate gender and SRHR metrics and indicators into the climate portfolio? What opportunities are there to have shared metrics and indicators across the climate portfolio and health or gender portfolios?

Pursue opportunities for cross-sectoral strategic influence

Considerations


  • Review your landscape map of climate adaptation investments and policy initiatives. Identify any opportunities for how the evidence and/or success of your recent investments might be used to build momentum for integrating SRHR and gender into the climate agenda (and vice versa).
