Official Host. Dr. Mohieldin will mainly shed
light on the hurdles to the flow of finance to the
landmark Loss & Damage Fund, announced last
year at COP27, and climate justice more broadly.
Being concerned with both quality and quantity, he
will also explain the need of developing countries
for more concessional finance to avoid future debt
challenges. The opening remarks of the session
will be delivered by the Scottish First Minister,
Hamza Yusuf, given his government’s financial
pledge at COP27 and notable commitment to the
issue of loss and damage.</P>
