Global Fund for Coral Reefs in MERMAID Are you a GFCR Program? Start here
MERMAID has been selected as the digital platform to support the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of Global Fund for Coral Reefs (GFCR) Programs.

The GFCR is a blended finance initiative and global partnership designed to mobilize resources and investment for the management, protection and restoration of coral reef ecosystems. It aims to support reef-positive businesses and deliver lasting impact through conservation, restoration, and sustainable development (see Theory of Change).

MERMAID supports GFCR Programs by:

  • Enabling the collection of baseline data for the 10 core GFCR Fund Indicators (F1–F10) and their 37 associated sub-indicators

  • Facilitating the tracking of progress against targets through bi-annual reporting and final evaluations (see GFCR Monitoring and Evaluation Toolkit)

  • Providing tools to generate summaries of coral reef health indicators for use in Program reporting and impact assessment

These capabilities are now fully supported through integrated tools within MERMAID Collect, specifically developed for the GFCR M&E Framework.
