Climate finance is not charity. It is a legal obligation - and the only means of a global response to this global crisis. #NCQG commitments must translate into real, sustained financial flows. #ClimateFinance https://t.co/aWRFLYWl51

At #COP30 in Belém, countries agreed to triple #AdaptationFinance by 2035 to around $120 billion a year. For the #LDCs, this is a signal of hope and the possibility of a more resilient future. Now the real work begins to turn this promise into reality. https://t.co/jv5oFCnmOk

Last ones standing, 24 hrs defending the group's position. At 08:00 - the package was agreed. It was a difficult night of huge compromises. We didn't win on all fronts, but we got tripling #adaptation finance by 2035! Thanks for siding with 1.6 billion people. A luta contiua!

In our last coordination meeting, I handed over a symbolic heavy bag to the incoming chair ambassador Adao SoaresBarbosa, asking him to be strong. Last‑moment photos taken, Sierra Leone's Minister appreciated milestones we achieved collectively . Goodbyes said. #LDC #Malawi

#COP30 in extra day - Adaptation finance is nowhere near what vulnerable nations need. This is the red line for LDCs. We need strong LDC Fund replenishment & a commitment to triple adaptation finance by 2030. Immediate 1.5 °C action required. #LDCs #ClimateAction
