climate financing

Wealthy countries have committed to helping countries in Africa to adapt to climate change, but few women producers, who are on the front line of dealing with the impacts, are feeling the benefit.

There has been an increase in international climate finance in the fight against climate change, according to a new OECD report, which Oxfam is encouraged by. 

The chance of a successful Paris climate deal depends on rich countries showing they have kept their past commitments, especially the promise they made in Copenhagen to jointly mobilize $100bn of climate financing per year by 2020, warned Oxfam today.

Today the European Commission published a Communication setting out its position towards international climate change negotiations aimed at reaching an agreement by December in Paris.

Oxfam finds that the new texts reflect unchangd country positions with many key issues still unresolved.
