Unlocking Climate Finance and Strengthening Accountability for Locally Led Adaptation

17 November @ 9:30 am 10:30 am Brazil

This session will unite innovative leaders from Africa and Latin America to explore a variety of “keys” that can both unlock and hold accountable adaptation finance that supports locally led action. We will share concrete examples to highlight how innovative approaches have mobilized funds from various sources and how CSOs are leveraging their relationships with communities and policymakers to ensure transparency, inclusion and accountability and to strengthen institutional capacity to deliver on commitments. The session will be interactive, working to lift the lid on activities that are successfully unlocking finance and pinpointing the challenges that hinder effective and equitable delivery.
