Limited capacity to address loss and damage
Support in training for data collection, analysis, harmonization, and processing, such as geospatial and hydrometeorological data. Provide tools for risk analysis. Assist with quantification of economic and non-economic losses and climate projections. Support with quantification of economic and non-economic losses and damages. Support for local governments and universities to connect with international research institutes.
Gender sensitive data and financing
Develop gender and environment statistics. Develop gender and L&D strategy and guidelines. Integrate gender considerations into L&D finance instruments.
Immediate humanitarian assistance
Facilitate humanitarian assistance immediate response in local communities following the occurrence of a climate-induced disaster.
Lack of dedicated funding
