Abstract:
World leaders and governments paved the way for the establishment of the Green Climate Fund (GCF) through the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change agreements made at the Conference of Parties in Copenhagen (2009) and Cancun (2010). The GCFâs objective is to achieve a paradigm shift towards low-carbon and climate-resilient development. A new policy brief from CDKN entitled "How can the Green Climate Fund initiate a paradigm shift?" explores the measures that will be needed for the GCF to fulfil its ambitions.
