As COP28 approaches, more than 190 signatories from the humanitarian, climate and development sectors are calling for the operationalization of a fit-for-purpose loss & damage fund. The call for action, organized by CAN International and ICVA and which Climate Refugees helped develop and has signed, highlights the importance of cross-sectoral coordination in order to ensure that those experiencing loss and damage as a result of climate change are able to receive the support they need. In particular, the call demands loss & damage financing that is accessible, adequate, additional, and accountable.
