CCC seeks funding for climate-related damage

THE Climate Change Commission (CCC) has called for the urgent delivery of global commitment on climate action, particularly the funding for climate-related loss and damage, at the 18th Meeting of the Warsaw International Mechanism Executive Committee (WIM Excom-18) in Manila.

Following the 27th Meeting of the Conference of Parties (COP27) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the WIM Excom convened on February 28 to discuss the milestone decision on funding arrangements for loss and damage, the enabling mechanisms to fully operationalize the Santiago Network and the Excom's second five-year rolling workplan.
