THE FUTURE FOR CLIMATE FINANCE IN NEPAL Government of Nepal National Planning Commission United Nations Development Programme United Nations Environment Programme Capacity Development for Development Effectiveness Facility for Asia Pacific
Abstract:
Financing climate change development needs, which are increasingly demanding more financial resources, is as much a challenge as developing both short- as well as long-term programmes for effective climate adaptation and mitigation. Several issues from securing globally available funds to channeling it to various programs transparently and to the highest international accountability standards are crucial in climate financing. The fund has to reach the local people who are most affected by the climate change impacts. Existing public financing arrangement must accommodate these needs as climate funding grows in future. Informed planning and decision making require improved access to information on various sources of climate finance in order to integrate climate finance with the national budgetary system. Hence, the Government of Nepal (GoN) carried out the study on the future for climate financing in Nepal so as to identify critical areas for improvement.The preparation of this report has been made possible through generous financial support provided by all PEI development partners: the Belgian Development Cooperation, the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Capacity Development for Development Effectiveness Faculty for Asia and Pacific, the European Commission, Irish Aid—Department of Foreign Affairs, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, the UK Department for International Development, and the US Department of State. #CLIMATEFINANCE #CLIMATE RESILIENCE #ENERGY #TRANSPARENCY #EXPENDITURE #LOCALGOVERNENCE #IMPLEMENTATION #ACTION #RESULT #GON #NPC
