The health burden of climate change is enormous, and the annual adaptation financing gap for health in LMIC is estimated at USD 11 billion. However, health accounts for less than 0.5% of multilateral funding for climate financing. Limited awareness of health priorities within multilateral climate funds has been recognized as a key barrier, in addition to technical capacity gaps and difficulties aligning health priorities with climate funding criteria. In order to address the above, the DGI Consult is organizing a webinar titled Unlocking Climate Finance for Health to discuss climate finance opportunities for health and chart a course of action for harnessing such opportunities. We have lined up a number of experts, including policymakers, climate finance experts, academia, and others, to speak at the webinar.
