On this #EarthDay, I renew my call for a Coalition of the Ambitious. International cooperation is under strain, but it is no less vital. There is no “us” versus “them” when climate impacts affect everyone, everywhere. More: linkedin.com/pulse/multilat…

Congratulations PM Mia Amor Mottley on this well-deserved recognition. Your words remind us what’s at stake and what can be achieved when we build bridges and work together, including through Green Climate Fund. We’re all in this together. time.com/collections/ea…

Pleased to meet President Andry Rajoelina and discuss how Green Climate Fund partnerships — including with Conservation Intl — can further support Madagascar’s climate goals. Together we're working to protect agricultural livelihoods, scale up clean energy, and build lasting resilience.

Renewables are gaining ground in Central Asia. Here in Kazakhstan, the right mix of policy and finance is helping clean power scale up. Excellent start to my visit to the region—the first by a Green Climate Fund Executive Director.

A goal of carbon neutrality. Over a billion new tree saplings planted (and counting). Kazakhstan is serious about climate action. Green Climate Fund is serious about helping deliver it. Grateful to President Qasym-Jomart Toqayev for our forward-looking conversation in Astana. More to do together.

Finance can help light the spark. But it’s people who turn it into lasting change. In Uzbekistan, like elsewhere, communities are the true drivers of change. Their resilience never ceases to inspire me.

When glaciers melt and floods strike, every minute counts. And data is everything. Green Climate Fund is partnering with Tajikistan to modernize hydromet systems and equip decision-makers with the information they need when it matters most.

In every major transition—from the Industrial Revolution to post-war reconstruction—skills made the difference between advancement and exclusion. In today's transforming economy, we’re not moving fast enough to keep pace. From a GIZ #HSC25 dialogue on green skills & jobs:

The oceans are Earth's greatest climate regulator. But they're under growing stress. However, finance for SDGs—including for oceans and climate—is not flowing as it should. Green Climate Fund has committed $1.3 billion to oceans and coastal resilience. And we're ready to do more. #UNOC3

A stark warning. The latest of many. We must keep moving forward with urgency and resolve. We can shift the course of this crisis globally. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Record climate finance. Major reforms. Momentum on regional presence. All agreed in the Pacific, a region on the frontlines of climate impacts. At this week’s Green Climate Fund Board meeting, the Fund delivered for those who need climate investment most. g.cf/4eHEzyQ

I stood at this geothermal site. I saw firsthand its transformative potential. Now St. Kitts and Nevis is one step closer to reshaping its energy future — the region's too. Empowering country leadership. That's what Green Climate Fund finance is all about tinyurl.com/yp5pmxfs
