CIF@COP29
The Climate Investment Funds (CIF) will be actively engaged at COP29. We will be sharing our knowledge, evidence, and insights and will focus on our key focus areas, including decarbonizing heavy-emitting industries in developing countries, increasing access to climate finance, and building climate resilience in some of the most vulnerable places in the world. We will also highlight how innovative, transformative financing solutions can empower countries to achieve their climate goals.
Visit the Climate Funds Pavilion in Baku!
For the second year running, the four largest multilateral climate funds – the Adaptation Fund (AF), CIF, Global Environment Facility (GEF), and Green Climate Fund (GCF) – are cohosting the Climate Funds Pavilion where COP delegates can join a variety of themed talks, meetings, and networking opportunities. This is a testament to a commitment first made at COP26 and articulated through a joint declaration at COP28, to enhance the complementarity and collaboration among the four funds.
