FEBA at UNFCCC COP27

October 6, 2022 - November 18, 2022

The COP 2 7 UN Climate Change Conference, hosted by Egypt, took place from 6 to 18 November 2021 in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt. Several significant developments on adaptation, resilience, loss & damage and nature were realized at COP27, including the formal recognition of Nature-based Solutions in both the cover text and as a cross-cutting element of the Global Goal on Adaptation. Parties also took the ground-breaking decision to establish new funding arrangements on Loss & Damage.

FEBA produced two issues briefs to inform the negotiations at COP27:

Loss and Damage, Ecosystem Integrity, and Nature-based Solutions – This brief outlined the state of the negotiations on Loss & Damage with a focus on how ecosystem integrity and the implementation and financing of Nature-based Solutions can contribute to averting, minimising and addressing loss and damage.

Nature-based Solutions and the Global Goal on Adaptation – This brief focused on how NbS for adaptation offer a critical pathway to define and implement an effective Global Goal on Adaptation and drive and enhance countries’ adaptation actions, with an emphasis on ensuring the incorporation, implementation, monitoring and financing of Nature-based Solutions within the GGA.
