The pledge, the plan, and the pipeline: Unlocking subnational climate finance for localised impact
This session, hosted in partnership with E3G, The Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA), Vasudha Foundation, will explore how subnational governments can translate national climate goals and just transition priorities into state-level transition plans, backed by financing platforms that convert plans into bankable project pipelines. This roundtable discussion will bring together subnational representatives from emerging markets to share experiences on mobilising capital through credible just transition financing mechanisms that support national climate ambitions. The discussion will highlight practical models and experiences from the Global South while situating them within the broader COP30 agenda on finance and implementation.
This is a 1 hour 15 minutes event starting from 3:15 to 4:30 pm, followed by coffee and canapes from 4:30 to 5:00 pm.
Please arrive 15 minutes before the session begins so that we can start on time.
