In order to confront the triple global challenges of rising inequality, the climate crisis and the COVID-19 health crisis, and its multifaceted repercussions, this project aims to strengthen the capacity of African, Caribbean and Pacific SIDS for a green, low-carbon, resilient and pro-poor recovery by providing opportunities for interregional and intraregional learning and exchange, including through the adaptation of existing tools and knowledge products of UN-Habitat, as well as the adaptation and testing of tools on local climate finance to advance innovative financing mechanisms for pro-poor climate action in urban upgrading. This work is expected to contribute to improving the capacities of selected SIDS to promote green, resilient and pro-poor recovery, which will be demonstrated by the exchange of knowledge and learning between regions with such States, climate action in informal settlements to drive green, pro-poor and resilient recovery, and innovative mechanisms for accessing climate financing.
