I'm glad to see LDC experts in Bhutan at the 1st workshop on the indicators for the Global Goal on #Adaptation #GGA , pushing for an inclusive approach to develop global indicators that will drive the much needed global efforts to adapt to #ClimateChange and enhance resilience.
After #Petersberg2024 , we stand firm in our call for new NDCs committing to deep emissions cuts in line with #ParisAgreement & increased financing for tackling #ClimateChange , esp. for LDCs. 2023 was the hottest year on record. The new #ClimateFinance goal must meet this moment.
At Global Environment Facility (GEF) council today, I welcomed support pledged at COP28 to LDCF and SCCF, but stressed that the needs of LDCs are much greater. These funds are critical life ropes for our vuln. communities and countries in helping us prepare for & manage the worst impacts of climate change
.LDC Chair Evans Davie Njewa expressed appreciation to #GEFCouncil66 for recent #LDCF donor pledges, but urged more, as #LDCs ' needs are much greater. 'We need to ensure both LDCF & #SCCF are fully supported.' Global Environment Facility (GEF)
These are some of my priorities for the next two years as LDC Chair. I look forward to working with you all to achieve UN Climate Change decisions that deliver for our people as we address the climate crisis 🌍
