Operationalising the Climate, Relief, Recovery and Peace Declaration
Climate finance for fragile and conflict-affected contexts continues to fall short. Although extreme weather events affect three times as many people in fragile and conflict-affected states annually compared to other countries, they receive up to 80 times less climate finance. This practical note provides guidance for actors to deliver peace-positive climate action and climate-informed peacebuilding in fragile and conflict-affected contexts.
