Our Director of Programmes, Georges Bazongo, endorses the principles of locally-led adaptation, as one of many ways to support #climatejustice.

🤝Working in solidarity with front-line communities
At #COP26, $450 million was committed to #LocallyLed Adaptation programs. While this is meaningful progress much more is needed to meet the needs of communities around the world to adapt to climate impacts.
We are calling on governments, funders and other institutions to endorse the principles at #COP27 and put them into practice at scale.
Now is the time to act.
