How the Indo-Pacific can beat the SDG cash crunch
The sustainable development goal financing gap has widened significantly in many developing countries in the region. Coordinated multi-stakeholder regional partnerships and cooperation are needed to mobilise new resources.

It is no exaggeration to say that the GCF’s replenishment campaign is a test of the world’s commitment to combating global warming. A successful outcome would not only help close the massive global climate financing gap, but would also allow developed countries to rebuild trust by showing that they understand the urgency of the crisis.
Indonesia could define new coal-powered generation as green under a tweaked version of its green taxonomy. Doing so, would relegate Indonesia to the bottom of the pack of global sustainable finance taxonomies.
