CLIMATE FINANCE IN THE PACIFIC: AN OVERVIEW OF FLOWS TO THE REGION
Summary
This research paper section provides a detailed breakdown of climate finance flows to Kiribati between 2010 and 2014, detailing the amounts, sources, and sectoral allocations of grant-equivalent finance.
Key insights
- Between 2010 and 2014, Kiribati received US$30.5 million in grant or grant-equivalent finance specifically for climate change objectives. Additionally, US$81.7 million in Official Development Assistance (ODA) for other objectives was reported as having climate change co-benefits, where climate change was tagged as a "significant" policy objective.
- Of the US$30.5 million allocated to primary climate change objectives, the majority supported mitigation activities at 52.1% (US$15.9 million), followed by adaptation at 43.3% (US$13.2 million), and 4.5% (US$1.4 million) targeting both simultaneously.
- The primary sources of climate finance for Kiribati were Australia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and the Global Environment Facility (GEF), including its Trust Fund and the Least Developed Countries Fund. Funding from Australia and the GEF focused mainly on "environmental policy," while Australia also funded environmental research and the UAE focused on solar energy.
