UNFCCC COP 25 Outcome Document Roundtable: “Resilience” Accelerating action to build a resilient 1.5-degree world

The document outlines a framework for building a resilient 1.5-degree world, focusing on three pillars: resilient economies, people/communities, and environments. It emphasizes the need to bring adaptation and resilience investment on par with mitigation, noting that current resilience finance is only around 5%. The report highlights specific global initiatives, such as the Insuresilience Global Partnership and the CRAFT fund, and provides a detailed annex of stakeholder contributions regarding data access, nature-based solutions, and the empowerment of marginalized groups.

• There is a significant gap between climate mitigation and adaptation investments, with adaptation and resilience finance currently accounting for approximately 5% of total climate finance.
• Strategic investment in climate risk management could yield high global returns; investing $1.8 trillion across various sectors between 2020 and 2030 is estimated to generate $7.1 trillion in total global net benefits.
• Building a resilient world requires three primary building blocks: creating resilient economies through restructured financial models and value chains; empowering people and communities via localized action and youth engagement; and protecting the environment through Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and biodiversity conservation.
• The document identifies a critical need to improve the access and usage of agro-climatic and disaster risk data in developing countries, arguing that the primary barrier is not a lack of data but a lack of access and ability to interpret it for decision-making.
• Several specific global initiatives are highlighted to scale resilience, including the Insuresilience Global Partnership Vision 2025, which aims to provide an additional safety net for 500 million people, and the Climate Resilient Solutions Fund (CRAFT), the first investment fund dedicated to adaptation and resilience solutions.
• Climate resilience efforts must be gender-responsive and inclusive, specifically addressing the 25% resource gap between male and female farmers to build effective resilience.
