Workshop with representatives from the investment sector to discuss findings of the research exploring impact investing.
In 2009, developed countries committed to mobilise $100 billion in climate finance per year by 2020 to address the needs of developing countries in the face of climate change. Meeting this target will require transformational change in the scale and pace of financing. Public sector resources can play a pivotal role in catalysing private sector investment.
This side event will provide a forum for dialogue on current efforts to develop and operationalize the Green Climate Fund with a special focus on Africa. Donors, civil society and government officials will discuss their respective past experience with convention funds and provide concrete recommendations.
