Selected strategy: B. Coordinate with Regional/Global Blocs
Equity:Working with other developing countries helps ensure climate finance reaches the most vulnerable people, not just one country or elite group.
Efficiency:Joint negotiation reduces duplication, improves transparency, and increases bargaining power, leading to better use of limited funds.
Sustainability:Regional cooperation supports long-term protection of shared ecosystems and creates stable financial and policy support over time.
Reflection on other strategies:This strategy complements A (natural capital) and D (loss and damage) by strengthening collective demands. However, it may conflict with C (strategic signaling) if actions harm the environment.
Lesson from DRC: Acting as a bloc gives Global South countries more leverage than acting alone.
