14:30-15:15 (GMT+4) Unlocking catalytic finance for climate solutions
COP29 is setting ambitious targets to mobilize crucially needed climate finance. Through Nordic action, we bridge catalytic financing with positive impact and work closely with Nordic actors and our global network of partners to create change.
Through this event, we aim to showcase good practices on creating pathways to scalable and sustainable climate solutions in the most vulnerable regions of the world. We will have an engaging panel of speakers presenting their learnings on efficient ways to scale up innovative projects with flexible, catalytic financing, from the perspective of both the public and private sectors.
On the stage: Satu Santala (Nordic Development Fund), Hans Olav Ibrekk (Norway Ministry of Foreign Affairs), Jacqueline Novogratz (Acumen), Avinash Persaud (Inter-American Development Bank), Maya Stewart (EEP Africa), Matilde Angelveit (Climate Policy Advisor at Norwegian Church Aid and Former Nordic Youth Representative)
Location: Nordic Pavilion (C13), Blue Zone
