Launch of the “City Climate Finance Training” at MEDCOP Climat

3 August 2016 - Foreword of the week - By : Marion DUPONT

Part of the Local programme, CCFT aims at strengthening the capacity of local stakeholders to formalize resilient urban projects and mobilize financial resources for their implementation.

Through 3 complementary workshops, it provides the required tools to create an enabling environment for funding the fight against climate change and the transition to a low-carbon economy. Next session will be held in September and final one during the COP22 in Marrakech.

The first workshop focused on raising awareness on the impacts of climate change at the local level. It gathered over 50 participants representing about 30 local authorities from Morocco and Tunisia and attracted over 20 speakers from the Mediterranean area.

CCFT benefits from the support of Climate KIC and GIZ.
