ICYMI: Following the historic decision to establish a loss and damage fund for countries most impacted by climate change at #COP27, former PWH postdoc Michael Franczak published a new @ipinst report discussing how the fund should be structured. Read here:

On May 10, the IPI climate team and participants considered the real implications of climate scenarios that countries might face in the future, and how we might reimagine global systems to best deal with them.

#Climate change is resulting in severe loss & damage, and it will only get worse. We need global financing at scale to respond. How? New @ipinst report proposes a "mosaic" approach to financing L&D: https://t.co/VsQFbNH9nQ #COP28UAE

#HappeningNow: Actions to Address Loss and Damage Workshop Participants put aside their institutional backgrounds and climate politics to examine which actions, mechanisms, and institutions are required to address #LossAndDamage, especially the losses and damages of the future.
