This report explores the dynamics of global climate finance, with a focus on the barriers and opportunities for the Global South Counties (GSC) in accessing climate funds. Climate finance has become an essential component of addressing climate change, but current international mechanisms often remain dominated by the Global North, especially during important climate conversations. Informed by literature reviews, focus group discussion and engagements with climate finance informants, the report explores how more equitable and alternative finance systems can be developed to address disparities in the global finance system.
