The COVID-19 crisis has been a wake-up call that our social and financial systems must be better prepared for the climate crisis. Building resilience to climate impacts will be critical to the efficacy of response and recovery efforts, yet climate-adaptation finance flows are at risk of falling sharply in the coming years at a moment when adaptation finance has never been more important. Cities in particular face cascading social, budgetary, and health risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic alongside climate risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Global Center on Adaptation<\/a>, the Adrienne Arsht-Rockefeller Foundation\u00a0Resilience Center<\/a>, the Cities Climate Finance Leadership Alliance<\/a>, and CPI will host a webinar to present the key findings from two recent policy briefs: An Analysis of Urban Climate Adaptation Finance<\/a> and Adaptation Finance in the Context of COVID-19<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the presentations, there will be a panel discussion with leaders and experts working in the urban climate adaption finance space.<\/p>\n\n\n\nOpening remarks<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
