Puesta en marcha del Fondo para Pérdidas y Daños
Summary
The report outlines a framework for the Loss and Damage Fund's design, emphasizing the need for diversified funding sources, simplified access for marginalized communities, and a governance structure that prioritizes grants and local leadership. It argues for a comprehensive approach that complements existing humanitarian and development aid rather than creating rigid new categories.
Key insights
- Economic costs of loss and damage in the Global South are projected to reach between 290 and 580 billion dollars annually by 2030.
- The fund should diversify its financial base beyond public funding to include private sector sources, philanthropic organizations, foundations, and innovative mechanisms such as voluntary taxes and debt deferrals.
- To ensure accessibility for the most vulnerable, the fund should implement simplified accreditation and due diligence requirements, particularly for small grants, countries in conflict zones, or entities already accredited.
- Governance should be participatory and representative of civil society and community groups, potentially utilizing a multi-level system with a global oversight board and regional or thematic boards for local distribution.
- Financing should prioritize flexible grants and programmatic approaches over strict project-based proposals, allowing countries to align funds with their own priorities.
- The fund must prioritize the most marginalized, including Small Island Developing States (SIDS), countries without access to other funds, and local communities, while encouraging community ownership and leadership.
- Rather than creating strict new categories, the fund should act as a connector to identify synergies and complement existing adaptation, humanitarian aid, development, and disaster risk reduction initiatives.
