Following COP27’s steps forward on accelerating private green finance to emerging markets, this session shared tangible steps for investors to mobilise capital towards a just and inclusive transition to net zero in more vulnerable economies. The panellists delved into examples and illustrative case studies, and reflected on the transformational impact green financing can have not only on mitigation and adaptation to climate impacts, but on wider issues such as gender equity and health.
