An untapped frontier? Matchmaking for city climate finance

To explore how to accelerate climate finance in cities, the third webinar of the Climate Conscious Cities: Urban-Act Webinar Series dives into the concept of city matchmaking. As the vulnerabilities and impacts of climate change in cities grow, innovative financing is needed to drive transformative action. Cities need the right know how, resourcing, and investment to access climate finance. How can they do this? Matchmaking in city climate finance refers to the process of connecting cities with potential sources of financing for project preparation and implementation for their climate action projects. In this webinar, learn more from leading experts about how matchmaking works, how private and public sector actors select projects to finance, what resources are available to cities, and more - to drive innovative, resilient, and low-carbon development in cities.
