About
During International Development Week, Global Affairs Canada (GAC) organized the Nature and Climate Community of Practice (NCCP) and the Partnering for Climate (P4C) initiative’s Annual Learning and Sharing event. The event included an overview of nature and climate programming, as well as a discussion on Indigenous knowledge sharing and partnerships with GAC and climate action actors from national Indigenous organizations, Canadian and international civil society, the private sector, academia, and the donor community.
This event was preceded by a session exploring the financing and social dimensions of just energy transitions. How can we ensure we are reaching populations living in different contexts, regions, and income levels? How can donors like Canada best support clean energy transitions in a variety of local contexts in developing nations? What are the emerging priority issues in financing the clean energy transition and how do they link to broader development issues?
