REPARATIONS AND RESILIENCE: DECOLONISING CLIMATE FINANCE
Watch Aid Talks #5 Webinar hosted by Reality of Aid-Asia Pacific and Aid/Watch Australia.
NOVEMBER 3, 2022
2:00 PM Dhaka / 4:00 PM Manila / 7:00 PM Sydney / 8:00 PM Suva
The lack of commitment to mobilize sufficient financing for countries in the global South to adapt to the impacts of climate change contributes to the exacerbation of inequalities and further degradation of the environment. Furthermore, the lack of control of frontline communities over the use of this much-needed finance rids them of ownership over their development priorities and puts their lives further at risk.
Join our guest speakers as they discuss climate finance and decolonisation of aid including:
How does the current aid structure further perpetuate colonialism and neoliberalism, which contributes to environmental degradation?
What will decolonisation of climate finance mean for adaptation, mitigation, loss and damage efforts, and whether there are any existing efforts of the donor community to decolonise this finance?
How do we re-imagine climate finance that genuinely addresses the climate emergency and promotes sustainable development for all?
