According to some sources, developing countries would collectively need to invest more than $2 trillion annually to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Unfortunately, there remains much to be done in this regard, and not many of these countries have identified which concrete investments should be made, let alone drawn up a financing plan to mobilize their own public resources, their national financial sectors, and the international development banks.
At the international level, in addition to its work with international development banks, I4CE contributes to the development and dissemination of transition financing management tools in developing countries that have proved their worth in France, such as the green budget and the “Landscape of climate finance”. These tools, which are available for free, show how the transition is currently financed and help plan its funding for the years ahead, based on a shared assessment and data.
