About this session
Strong institutions are essential for effective climate action. Convened by the Green Climate Fund, this session will explore how readiness support is helping Pacific countries strengthen climate governance, access finance and implement country-led priorities. Bringing together governments, regional organisations and partners, the discussion will showcase lessons, successes and opportunities to enhance institutional capacity, local ownership and long-term resilience. Participants will examine how readiness investments can unlock larger climate finance flows and accelerate adaptation, mitigation and sustainable development outcomes across the Pacific.
