Mark Carney, UN Special Envoy and the Prime Minister’s Finance Advisor for COP26, will lead this event showcasing the transformational steps taken by the global financial sector to deliver the tools, markets and financial commitments needed to align global financial flows with the Paris goals. Contributions from international organisations and the public and private sectors are now able to ensure that every financial decision takes climate change into account. 

This event will bring together leadership from across the world, multilateral development banks and the private sector to discuss the major advances in financing adaptation since Paris in 2015. It will showcase achievements on managing climate risk including innovative approaches that get finance quickly to people most vulnerable to climate change or free up fiscal space after a disaster. Speakers will discuss a roadmap for greater action, including the work of the Taskforce on Access to Climate Finance, to drive new commitments from donors and the private sector to organise finance behind country plans.
