With climate change as the most pressing challenge of our generation, an emerging climate finance architecture, led by multilateral climate funds, aspires to channel hundreds of billions of dollars, and to leverage the allocation of even larger sums of private funds into climate-friendly investments. Ensuring that climate finance delivers on this challenge is a matter of concern to all, and particularly to those most vulnerable and directly affected by climate change.
The SAN was created to promote good governance in climate finance through enhanced stakeholder engagement by supporting non-state oversight, promoting transparency and building capacity to enhance meaningful participation at all levels of climate finance decision-making with particular focus on the global level. It is a network that aims to facilitate sharing of knowledge and coordination among climate fund observers from civil society, indigenous people, and the private sector.
