Very passionate indeed!!! Because debt-for-climate conversions are such a positive and powerful tool to unlock significant nature investments without sacrificing other critical development goals!

Sharing this release. 📰
The GOJ is collaborating with multilateral (IMF, IDB, EIB, GCF) and bilateral partners (UK, EU, and others to come!) to crowd in private investment that can help accelerate PPP’s for climate resilient infrastructure development.
The development of these new sources of financings for climate smart infrastructure development represents a substantial policy dividend for Jamaica from our climate finance reforms supported by the IMF’s Resilience and Sustainability Trust programme.
