Achieving Fair Climate Finance to Deliver Resilience, Ambition, and a Just Transition - Annual Policy Document for COP29

11 Nov 2024

This policy document from Climate Action Network (CAN) outlines key demands for COP29, emphasizing the necessity of equitable climate finance to support climate resilience, adaptation, and a just transition for vulnerable countries. The report calls for a minimum public finance provision goal of $1 trillion annually, focused on grants rather than debt-inducing loans, to support mitigation, adaptation, and loss and damage (L&D) initiatives. CAN advocates for transparency, tax justice, and accountability in finance mechanisms, alongside principles like "polluter pays" and common but differentiated responsibilities. The document also highlights the need for an inclusive, rights-based approach in transitioning to sustainable energy systems, reinforcing the importance of human rights protections within Article 6 market-based mechanisms and supporting local resilience and adaptation efforts.
