60+ developing countries walk out #COP15 over funding gaps. Critical time to provide more consistent finance for biodiversity and nature. Read more in our new blog. https://t.co/AR9bj1FQ9b #COP15FinanceDay

People living in places affected by conflict remain largely excluded from access to finance for climate adaptation.

Leading up to #COP27, we share recommendations to begin to remedy this situation.

NEW POLICY BRIEF: rethink risks in FCAS for Climate Adaptation Investments. Key to urgently help these countries who are amongst the most climate vulnerable @climatefinance @climateadaptation @COP27 @cao_yue86 @adri_quev @amir_khouzam Namita Khadri https://t.co/DcoLeox4m0

[SPARC_Ideas @SPARC_Ideas]

New SPARC policy brief by @adri_quev & @cao_yue86 is a call to policy makers and governments to look at risks differently in fragile and conflict-affected states.

Support through #ClimateAdaptationFinance may fill critical gaps.

Delighted to launch the UK’s new £5m climate change programme in partnership with UNDP and Canada. Climate Change is the biggest threat the world faces, the UK is committed to helping Iraq face that challenge.

[UK in Iraq 🇬🇧🇮🇶 @UKinIraq]

Climate Change is the biggest long term threat Iraq faces. That is why the UK is proud to announce today a new £5m programme in Partnership with UNDP and Canada to help Iraq face some of the challenges of climate change.

How #conflict sensitive is #ClimateFinance in Mali, Somalia & Sudan? How much do climate #adaptation investments in these regions support or hinder security?
Our new research by @cao_yue86 @TillyAlcayna @adri_quev @ODIclimate answers these questions:

The #IPCC's new #ClimateReport warns of the devastating losses and damages #ClimateChange is already causing worldwide, but as @mairidupar writes, it's also clear on actions everyone must take to hold #GlobalWarming to 1.5°C 🔥 https://t.co/zHllMMrups

[TNFD @TNFD_]

New @IPCC_CH report shows that #climatechange is already causing observable changes in ecosystems.
The latest assessment considers the interdependence between #climate and #biodiversity to a much greater extent than previous reports.

[Joe Thwaites @joethw8s]

The #IPCC's WGII report on Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability puts median adaptation costs in developing countries at:
$127bn in 2030
$295bn in 2050

Current adaptation finance:
$46bn globally (2019/20, @climatepolicy)
$20bn from developed to developing countries (2019, @OECD)

[Adriana Quevedo @adri_quev]

Adaptation finance continues to lag. Total adaptation finance remains far below the scale necessary -annual adaptation costs in developing economies will be at least in the range of USD 155 to USD 330 billion by 2030 #climatefinance #climateadaptation https://t.co/JA55saAhgU

[Patrick Bigger @patrickmbigger]

This is climate apartheid. Even the countries that do get funding aren't getting enough. The rich world must meet its climate finance promises & if Southern governments cant access this money bc austerity/structural adjustment, the big polluters must pay for capacity building too

Perhaps the biggest need in a new climate finance framework is around climate disclosures—the financial risks that companies and issuers (including local and state governments) face around climate change, @jwkane1 & @AdieTomer note. https://t.co/Yufw4x8RMV
