Let’s face it – climate crisis is really about money. Harmful money, helpful money, too much money going to the wrong things, or too little money going to the right things. We call upon governments and banks to fix the finance flows that are failing the planet.

We believe that #LossAndDamage is a #ClimateJustice issue. And we believe that it is beyond Adaptation and Mitigation. As young people, we want to see the funding addressing things that compensate what has been lost and damaged.
AAM's Wongani Mugaba: "Climate change has resulted in massive damage including non economic damage. What mechanisms does #LossAndDamageFund have to compensate survivors for non economic damage? And what mechanisms are there to build the preparedness capacity of the communities?
