A bilateral meeting between officials of RSPN and the Adaptation Fund was held during COP28. The meeting discussed the diverse areas of collaboration that RSPN and Adaptation Fund could engage in.

RSPN’s engagement with the Adaptation Fund will significantly benefit the country in accessing the climate funds and strengthen country’s stewardship for the climate action. There is huge demand of enhanced climate action in the country with climate change disproportionately effecting different sectors. For instance, according to the recently launched National Adaptation Plan of the country, there is an outline of fund mobilization requirements close to USD 13 billion for building climate resilience of different sectors.

The officials of Adaptation Fund acknowledged the aspiration, promptness and capacity of RSPN in tackling the climate issues in the country. The meeting observed both sides to keep the spirit of communicating more and work based on the country’s priorities.

RSPN acknowledges the support of Disignated Authority of the country in coordinating the meeting.
