Why climate finance matters now

Climate finance has become the defining enabler of effective climate action. As countries move from making climate commitments to implementing them, the ability to mobilize, access and effectively deploy financial resources is now central to achieving climate resilience and sustainable development. From adaptation and mitigation to nature-based solutions, green infrastructure and resilient livelihoods, adequate financing is essential to turning climate ambition into measurable impact.
