The Importance of Finance in a Loss and Damage Status Report

From Baku to Belém without Consensus

Nur Text auf dem Titelbild einer Fachpublikation zur Finanzierung von Loss and Damage

Since COP29, Parties have been unable to agree on a decision regarding the review of the Warsaw International Mechanism (WIM) for Loss and Damage (L&D). A key point of contention remains the proposal to develop an L&D Status Report. Our policy brief outlines why such a report is essential – and why it must include a dedicated finance section. Without reliable data on financial needs, available resources, and funding gaps, effective responses to L&D cannot be achieved.
