The African Group of Negotiators on Climate Change (AGN) is urging international parties to fulfill previously agreed-upon climate commitments, particularly those concerning financial aid. Specifically, they are advocating for predictable and increased grant-based climate finance allocated to adaptation efforts within Africa. This call to action comes ahead of the 31st Conference of the Parties (COP31), with the AGN emphasizing the urgent need for resources to address the impacts of climate change on the continent. They are seeking a tangible shift from pledges to actual delivery of funds. The AGN believes that adequate financial support is crucial for African nations to build resilience and mitigate the challenges posed by a changing climate. The focus is on securing resources that support adaptation, enabling Africa to proactively respond to climate-related risks. The AGN’s position underscores the growing frustration with unmet financial promises made by developed nations to support climate action in developing countries.
