The Covid-19 Emergency Response Grants were created as an urgent response to the severe disruptions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly within Transfrontier
Conservation Areas (TFCAs) in Southern Africa.
The After-Action Review of the Covid-19 Response Grant enabled IUCN and its grantees to analyze project outputs, identify critical success factors, and reflect on successes
and challenges. The process uncovered valuable good practices to guide future initiatives and outlined actionable recommendations to improve the design and impact of upcoming grant mechanisms and projects.

The purpose of this document is to provide a clear framework for Grantees to identify, consult, and properly obtain consent from IP before implementing any activities, programs, or actions that may affect them. It provides
guidance on the core elements and structure of an FPIC process (including considerations prior to and after achieving FPIC), initiating engagement and identifying groups, and circumstances under which FPIC can/should
be triggered. The FPIC process (section 5) is presented as a general approach, rather than specifically speaking to the people and parties engaged in the project. However, it is intended to inform the Grantee and project
developers for their approach to engagement of, and consultation with, indigenous peoples throughout the project lifecycle. This protocol aims to ensure that cooperation and indigenous inclusion is meaningful, done
in good faith, is culturally appropriate (includes their own preferred institutions and respects any traditional decision-making processes), and aligned with key international standards.

Any serious incidents (SI) in Transfrontier Conservation Area Financing Facility (TFCA FF) supported activities/projects must be reported immediately after the incident occurred. With a view to the time, it
may take to prepare a full Serious Incident Report (see Reporting Form in Appendix 1 to this document), the Grantee is required to submit an immediate e-mail with an informal initial notification to TFCA FF
within 48 hours after the occurrence of a serious incident.

The purpose of a Stakeholder Engagement Plan (SEP) is to demonstrate how a project has engaged with stakeholders during the project design (design of the concept and full proposal), and the proposed stakeholder
engagement process that will be followed during the project’s planning and implementation. The Transfrontier Conservation Area (TFCA) Financing Facility (TFCA FF or ‘the Facility’) require Applicants/Grantees to have
established an outline of a SEP upon submission of a full proposal.

The purpose of this document is to outline the TFCA FF’s approach to receiving, accepting, assessing, resolving
and monitoring grievances from those affected by activities supported by the Facility. The objective of the TFCA
FF GRM is to provide a platform for individuals or groups affected by the activities funded by the TFCA FF to
voice their concerns, opinions and problems related to the activities. It is also to provide a prompt and effective
mechanism for resolving and addressing grievances fairly, transparently and in a culturally appropriate way. The
GRM is rights compatible as per the requirements of the United Nations (UN) Guiding Principles on Business
and Human Rights and allows stakeholders to claim remedy if the adverse impact has already been caused.
