This is for you! #44LDCs #United4ClimateAction

Climate finance is not charity. It is a legal obligation - and the only means of a global response to this global crisis. #NCQG commitments must translate into real, sustained financial flows. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

At #COP30 in Belém, countries agreed to triple #AdaptationFinance by 2035 to around $120 billion a year. For the #LDCs, this is a signal of hope and the possibility of a more resilient future. Now the real work begins to turn this promise into reality. www.climatechangenews.com/2025/12/17/t...

New pledges and projects approvals @theGEF LDCF/SCCF council meeting. Projects - Eritrea, Haiti, Kiribati, Senegal & Marshall Islands. Pledges: Germany €10m, Belgium €5.9m, Sweden 130m SEK, Ireland €3m (LDCF) & €2m (SCCF) Progress, but the funding gap remains so huge! #LDCS #Adaptation #GEF

On the 10th Anniversary of the #ParisAgreement, with #COP30 behind us and my term as LDC Chair coming to an end, this is a moment to reflect. My thoughts on the Belém package and what's needed next for our countries on the frontlines of #ClimateChange 🌍 www.ldc-climate.org/ten-years-fr...

Last ones standing, 24 hrs defending the group's position. At 08:00 - the package was agreed. It was a difficult night of huge compromises. We didn't win on all fronts, but we got tripling #adaptation finance by 2035! Thanks for siding with 1.6 billion people. A luta contiua!

In our last coordination meeting, I handed over a symbolic heavy bag to the incoming chair ambassador Adao SoaresBarbosa, asking him to be strong. Last‑moment photos taken, Sierra Leone's Minister appreciated milestones we achieved collectively . Goodbyes said. #LDC #Malawi

#COP30 in extra day - Adaptation finance is nowhere near what vulnerable nations need. This is the red line for LDCs. We need strong LDC Fund replenishment & a commitment to triple adaptation finance by 2030. Immediate 1.5 °C action required. #LDCs #ClimateAction

Today, the new LDC 1.5 Mission is born! ✅ Endorsed by LDC Ministers in Belém, Brazil ✅ Now, the 4th LDC initiative alongside LUCCC, REEEI, and LIFE‑AR. 💡 Goal: Keep political momentum alive to keep 1.5 °C within reach. 🔋 Focus: Raise resources, tech & capacity‑building.

Our teams are safe. No major incidents recorded. We continue engaging the Presidency to ensure COP30 outcome delivers strong adaptation elements for LDCs. It still doesn't look good, but we remain hopeful and united. 1.6 billion people are waiting. #COP30 #LDCs #Adaptation

The #LossAndDamage Fund #FRLD is a lifeline for LDCs. Today's launch is a vital step to get finance flowing to our countries to address L&D. It must now deliver with speed and simplicity: our communities cannot afford delays. If done right, it can be a true model of #ClimateJustice in action #COP30
