We are concerned that progress is stalling at #COP27
Negotiations are missing the ambition needed to protect those hardest hit by climate change.
IFRC calls on Parties to build on what was agreed in Glasgow & raise ambition & action on mitigation, adaptation & on loss & damage

Water must be at the heart of climate solutions. To build climate resilient and equitable future, we need:
💦 Clean, reliable and accessible water resources
🌱 Healthy freshwater ecosystems
Add your voice for collective water action at #COP27. #Water4Climate

There has been much investment in international policy frameworks - now it is a matter of making sure impact happens at the local level. Law & policy are a key foundational piece for making sure that action happens.

Legal frameworks should facilitate climate finance to local actors for risk
reduction and climate adaptation action.
