This analysis aims to raise awareness about the share of global public climate finance intended for the urban poor to highlight the need for more investment in these essential communities. The study focuses on projects financed through twenty-two Global Climate Funds, including the Green Climate Fund (GCF), the Adaptation Fund (AF), and the Global Environment Facility (GEF). On the back of the analysis, it offers voluntary recommendations for donors, national and local governments, and other urban actors on how to increase and better target climate finance to the urban poor.
