Climate Finance Accounting for Agriculture and Natural Resources (mostly adaptation) Read more about Climate Finance Accounting for Agriculture and Natural Resources (mostly adaptation) Agriculture and water sectors are likely to be the primary avenue of risk from climate change. This presentation discusses the methodology used by multilateral development banks for tracking adaptation finance, particularly in the agriculture and natural resources sector. It also details ADB's implementation framework and provides practical and illustrative examples.

This presentation tackles the adaptation finance’s key elements and adaptation finance reporting guiding principles.
Counting Mitigation Finance-MDB Approach Read more about Counting Mitigation Finance-MDB Approach For an activity to be considered under climate mitigation, it should help promote the reduction of green house gases (GHG) emission or enhance GHG sequestration. This presentation gives a closer look at the approach used by multilateral development banks (MDBs) in mitigation finance tracking.
Climate Finance Tracking: Joint MDB Approach Read more about Climate Finance Tracking: Joint MDB Approach Multilateral development banks (MDBs) in 2012 worked together to develop methodologies for tracking their climate finance flows. This helps ensure that mitigation and adaptation finance flows are consistent, comparable, and transparent. This presentation provides a snapshot of how the MDBs joint approach started.
