SUMMARY:Africa regional dialogue 2: Scaling-up Locally Led Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:At the COP26 Presidency’s Climate and Development Ministerial, the world’s most vulnerable countries stated loud and clear the need for radical improvements in their access to climate finance, and the need to increase support for locally led adaptation. Similar calls have also come through the Climate Vulnerable Forum and G7 meetings.\nIn partnership with the UN COP26 Presidency, Race to Resilience and the Adaptation Action Coalition, eight partners are collaborating to build on this momentum to support the scale-up in locally-led adaptation globally.\nSix peer-to-peer regional dialogues are being held across Asia-Pacific, Africa, and the Caribbean and Latin America in September and October 2021.\nThe COP26 Presidency is pressing donors to improve and scale up their adaptation commitments, including support to locally-led adaptation and access to finance. Locally-led adaptation is a central focus for the incoming Presidency, and in the lead up to COP, donors will convene to discuss how to improve adaptation financing at the local level.\nThe dialogues offer a chance for countries and non-state actors to learn from each other and showcase the real potential for locally-led adaptation via direct and enhanced direct access models.\nEvent programme:\n1. Welcome and Keynote Remarks\nBeth Chitekwe-Biti, Acting Managing Director, Slum Dwellers International\nAlicia Herbert, Special Envoy for Gender Equality, United Kingdom Foreign\nCommonwealth and Development Office\nIneza Umuhoza Grace, Founder, The Green Fighter\n2. Pathways for delivering Locally Led Adaptation\n3. Break-out discussions on the changes needed to support Locally Led Adaptation\n4. Plenary Discussion and Reflection\n5. Closing\n
