About the webinar

Following the negotiations in Lima, national capacities in the provision of resources for climate activities are increasingly critical. The objective of the webinar was to discuss some fundamental concepts and innovative instruments in climate finance, and to receive updates on the architecture of international climate finance, including the Green Climate Fund.
This webinar coincided with the launch of an online course on the essential and innovative elements in preparing for the effective use of climate finance, developed by the World Bank. Participants received more information to register, free of charge, for the online course facilitated by the World Bank, which was offered from February 2-23, 2015.
