Lutter contre la corruption qui compromet les progrès climatiques
Summary
The document warns that the estimated $8 trillion needed for nature by 2050 creates significant corruption risks that can divert resources from climate mitigation and adaptation. It cites a study from Bangladesh where 35% of climate adaptation infrastructure funds were diverted. To counter this, the document advocates for strengthening climate finance integrity, increasing decision-making transparency, and preventing illicit financial flows.
Key insights
- Addressing the triple crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss, and soil degradation is estimated to require an investment of $8 trillion in nature by 2050.
- Corruption poses a risk to new climate investments by diverting resources away from efforts focused on climate mitigation, adaptation, and nature restoration.
- A 2020 study by Transparency International Bangladesh on climate adaptation infrastructure projects since 2010 found that 35% of project funds were diverted and nearly 80% of projects were poorly constructed due to corruption-related leakages.
- To protect climate progress, the document recommends strengthening the integrity of climate finance, increasing transparency in climate-related decisions, and promoting the integrity of nature-based solutions.
