Event Type: TED Talk
Speakers:

Background:
Although climate finance is mandated by the UN to be allocated equally between mitigation and adaptation, too little attention and resources have been focused to date on adaptation. The objective of this event is to highlight some of the creative/innovative approaches to adaptation finance that are occurring among the global lending and investing community. The objective is to encourage other lenders/investors to emulate what these entities have done to inject much needed additional capital into adaptation finance.
