The #climatecrisis is a food, water and energy crisis.
But climate finance delivers.
@theGCF investments have already helped 375 million+ people adapt:
- more secure food for 14.5 million
- more secure water for nearly 40 million
My message at #COP31: back what works.
Five funds.
Distinct mandates.
Shared direction.
At #COP31, @adaptationfund@CIF_action FRLD @theGEF@theGCF outlined how closer collaboration mobilises catalytic finance for developing countries, faster and at greater scale. https://t.co/61bAr8w9mh
