Large-scale mobilisation of finance for mitigation and adaptation investments is central to meeting climate and development goals, but progress is far too slow. The Sharm El Sheikh Guidebook For Just Financing by the Egyptian COP27 Presidency sets out recommendations for different stakeholders – governments, donors and development banks, and private sector – with the aim of turning commitments into implementable climate-related projects and of capturing opportunities for climate and development investments. The panel will discuss the state of progress on mobilising finance, remaining bottlenecks, as well as key priorities and opportunities to shift the needle on mobilisation, and advance climate action ahead of COP28.
