The overarching aim of this project was to increase the effectiveness of the progressive voice in the negotiations by bringing together developing countries that show leadership (or the potential for leadership) within the negotiations.

Over the last decade a new term has entered the lexicon of policy makers and the media: climate change refugees or climate change induced forced displacement. The First Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC AR1) in 1990 noted that the greatest single impact of climate change might be on human displacement and migration.

The Climate Finance Advisory Service (CFAS) is a platform through which negotiators, policy makers and advisors in the poorest and most climate vulnerable countries can access bespoke information and guidance needed to effectively participate in global climate finance negotiations.

A research team has been set up to generate scientific information on possible options and GHG mitigation scenarios for Peru with representatives from the following sectors: agriculture, energy, forestry, industrial processes, transport, waste and a macro-economic team.

This project will review the effectiveness of various initiatives (including CDKN’s), for supporting international negotiators (in climate change and other fields) and make recommendations to inform CDKN’s work.

CDKN has partnered with the Meridian Institute to bring together a variety of advocacy fund stakeholders for a series of events which will discuss how best to support negotiators in international climate change negotiations.
