Description
The need to increase investment in climate adaptation is clear, but how can this be achieved in practice? This session brings innovative approaches from four case studies featured in the forthcoming OECD Compendium of Good Practices. These include:
• Barbados' pioneering debt-for-climate swap to free fiscal space for investment in resilience
• UK's Flood Re public-private insurance model to ensure coverage while encouraging risk reduction
• Bhutan's transformation of climate priorities into USD 850 million investment-ready packages
• Kenya's climate innovation ecosystem supporting local entrepreneurs to develop adaptation solutions
The expert panel will share practical insights on overcoming challenges, implementing innovative financing mechanisms, and creating collaborative approaches that transform adaptation ambitions into tangible, resilient outcomes. This session is targeted at decision makers from the public and private sectors who are seeking scalable approaches to investment in adaptation.
