Climate Change is often seen as a threat to development. In the development and climate programme, the starting point is not climate but instead development priorities. The idea is that objectives of development and poverty eradication must be met but with strategies that aim for climate friendly and climate safe development. The workshop on Financing Integrated Development & Climate strategies explored this development-first approach by looking into the possibilities of attracting investments, which are required to make a proper transition towards a sustainable development pathway. The workshop identified five approaches to improve financing of integrated development and climate strategies, which can be used by policy makers and the private sector.
