Rendre opérationnel le fonds pertes et préjudices
Summary
The report outlines a framework for the operationalisation of the Loss and Damage Fund, emphasizing the need for inclusive governance, simplified access for vulnerable nations, and a diverse funding base. It argues for a grant-based approach and the integration of humanitarian and non-profit sector practices to ensure funds reach the most marginalized local communities.
Key insights
- The economic cost of loss and damage in the Global South is projected to reach between 290 and 580 billion US dollars annually by 2030.
- Funding sources for the Fund should be diversified beyond public finance to include the private sector, foundations, and charitable organisations, while prioritising historical responsibility over strict liability.
- To ensure accessibility, the Fund should implement simplified accreditation, modulate due diligence based on the amount requested, and provide specialised windows for small countries, low-capacity nations, and conflict-affected areas.
- Governance should be participatory and representative of civil society, potentially utilizing a two-tier system with a global oversight board and regional or thematic committees to manage subnational and local distribution.
- The Fund should primarily utilize grants and flexible programmatic funding, allowing countries to follow their own national loss and damage roadmaps rather than rigid project proposals.
- To reach the most marginalized, the Fund should adopt humanitarian sector methods, such as direct funding through local NGOs and requiring governments to include community engagement processes in project proposals.
- Rather than creating strict boundaries between loss and damage and other sectors, the Fund should adopt a comprehensive approach that fills existing gaps while supporting long-term adaptation and resilience.
