Mafalda Duarte - Supporting Developing Countries while Taking Care of the Climate

Planet A - Talks on Climate Change

In this episode of Planet A, Dan Jørgensen is joined by Mafalda Duarte, the executive director of the world’s largest climate fund – the Green Climate Fund.
Mafalda Duarte sheds light on how the fund is at the forefront of aiding developing countries on their path to development that is both low in emissions and resilient to the climate.
She explains the fund’s projects which span billions of dollars and how to balance this with the needs of developing countries: “We have to put ourselves in the shoes of these people in developing countries.”
What concrete investments lead to sustainable development? How can developed and developing countries better work together to achieve climate goals?
Join us as Mafalda Duarte and Dan Jørgensen tackle these questions and discuss the potential of climate finance in the quest for sustainable development.
