3/8. 😡The bad news: 🏦The BIM replicates the traditional model used other climate funds such as the Green Climate Fund (GCF) — one that is slow 🦥 and full of burdensome 📎 bureaucracy.

2/8. 😎The good news: 🎯B7 concluded with the operationalisation of the Barbados Implementation Modalities (BIM) — the start-up phase of the Fund. 📢 This means the call for funding proposals will be launched at #COP30 and we could see the Board selecting ✅ proposals at B8.👏

16/19. 🔎As a result the current Chairs will continue to serve the Board until new Co-Chairs are elected. 👏In their closing remarks both commended and thanked all those who had contributed to the operationalisation of the FRLD. 🙏

15/19. 🧑⚖️The terms of the current Co-Chairs, Richard Sherman, South Africa 🇿🇦 and Jean-Christophe Donnellier of France 🇫🇷 end on the 31st of December 2025. Yet the Board was not able to elect new Co-Chairs due to pending nominations. 📥

14/19. 🌦️As much as it is the start of the BIM, in many ways B7 also marks the end of an era with a large number of Board members rotating out of their seats and new Co-Chairs to be elected for 2025. 😢

13/19. 🎩Throughout B7, we also saw the spectre of the Word Bank 🏦 looms large as it became increasingly clear that Bank’s policies and processes are killing ☠️ the potential for the FRLD to be an innovative and different Fund.

12/19. 🚨The failure to deliver a resource mobilisation strategy risks the Fund running out of money 🤯 in 2027 and seriously limits the possibility of allocating further money to the BIM at B8. 😭

11/19. 🚫💰Crucially, B7 also failed to put in place a long term resource mobilisation strategy for the FRLD. With only a procedural decision being taken to request a draft resource mobilisation strategy to be prepared for B9. 🤯
