The Donor Tracker team provides insight into the funding flows, challenges of tracking, and political statements resulting from COP27, the 2022 UN Conference of the Parties.

COP27 began on November 6, 2022, against a backdrop of continued greenhouse gas emissions increases, unfulfilled climate financing commitments, and ongoing disagreement between key players on who should shoulder the responsibility for a rapidly changing climate. The conference was expected to be the “implementation COP,” focused on goals, strategies, and responsibility for future climate action.
