Today’s climate financing landscape poses a number of governance challenges. It is characterised by fragmentation and weak coordination, begging better clarity, connectivity and accountability for those most affected by climate change. The Green Climate Fund offers an opportunity to remedy this. It could become a global, centralised fund that is equitably and transparently governed, and grounded in the needs of the world’s poorest.
