As COP30 gets underway, Debbie Hillier, Head of the @zcralliance.bsky.social for Mercy Corps, shares what we'll be working on over the next two weeks in Belém!

As week one of @cop30brazil.bsky.social draws to a close, Barbara Rosen Jacobson of Mercy Corps checks in to tell us how things have been progressing around all things adaptation finance. There have been promising developments - can week two deliver? As Barbara says: stay tuned...

Who is currently paying for adaptation in countries like Bangladesh? With time running out on @cop30brazil.bsky.social, @concernworldwide.bsky.social's Afsari Begum takes a moment to remind us all on exactly why we need progress on adaptation finance for developing countries. #COP30

Strong governance structures and well-coordinated institutional frameworks can significantly enhance the effectiveness of #EarlyWarningSystems. ISET International is partnering with local governments and provincial agencies in Vietnam to make such systems more cohesive, inclusive and sustainable.​

Tommy Chimpanzi of @concernworldwide.bsky.social has been busy in Belém, participating in Resilience Hub events and tracking what the Least Developed Countries group - currently chaired by his native Malawi - expects from @cop30brazil.bsky.social. Thanks for the update, Tommy!

Early Warning Systems that focus on single hazards often fail to capture the full range of risks communities face, leading to fragmented and inefficient response efforts. The @zcralliance.bsky.social is working with communities to close these gaps through the development of multi-hazard approaches.

Day 3 @cop30brazil.bsky.social is drawing to a close, and Kristen Ostling (@planglobal.bsky.social / @plancanada.bsky.social) has been following the negotiations. Here's why this conference is so important for the next generation of children and youth, and why their perspective must not be ignored.

Adaptation is urgently needed but the key question is: how do we fund this, and who pays for this? Swenja Surminski from @granthamlse.bsky.social explains what needs to happen to protect the most vulnerable communities. #Adaptation #ClimateAdaptation #ClimateAction
