Bottom-up Climate Finance Requirements Tracker: Data and Methodology

The document outlines the methodology for the Climate Finance Requirements Tracker, a tool that systematically tracks quantitative climate finance data from all rounds of nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Since 2021, the World Resources Institute has used this process to distinguish between international and domestic funding requirements for mitigation and adaptation, while also compiling data on the economic impacts of climate-related loss and damage.

• Since 2021, the World Resources Institute has systematically tracked quantitative climate finance data from all rounds of nationally determined contributions (NDCs), covering both mitigation and adaptation requirements.
• The tracker distinguishes between funding expected from international sources and funding anticipated to be provided through domestic finance.
• The World Resources Institute has compiled data on the current and projected economic impacts of climate-related loss and damage based on all available NDC submissions.
